- John 20:28 Note that these words are spoken to Jesus, not as a mere exclamation. Thomas here honors the Son even as the Father, 5:23. He addresses Jesus as God.
- John 20:30 This may be taken narrowly of signs regarding the resurrection (such as eating broiled fish, Lk 24:43), making this the conclusion of the resurrection event. Or, this may be taken broadly, making this the conclusion of the book, to which John adds additional information next.
