John 5:26-28

²⁶ [^LFor] ·Life comes from the Father himself [just as the Father has life], ·and [so] he has ·allowed the Son to have [given the Son] life in himself as well. ²⁷ And the Father has given the Son the ·approval [authority; power; right] to ·judge [execute judgment], because he is the Son of Man [^Ca title for the Messiah; Dan. 7:13–14]. ²⁸ Don’t ·be surprised [marvel; be amazed] at this: A ·time [^Lhour] is coming when all who are dead and in their graves will hear his voice.
