Jesus taught the people about who he was and why he had come into the world. He encouraged people to believe in him and receive his word. He emphasized that he came from God and was obedient to God in everything he said. Here are some other possible titles for this section:
The need to receive Jesus’ word
Believing in Jesus or rejecting him
And whoever sees Me sees the One who sent Me.
And the one who looks at me, that person sees my Father who sent me.
And if you(plur) see me, you(plur) are seeing God who sent me to this world.
And whoever sees Me sees the One who sent Me: Jesus was saying that he was one with God, which is similar to what he said in 12:44. Seeing Jesus was the same as seeing God. As in 12:44a, the word whoever refers to anyone and everyone who sees Jesus. Use the subject that is most natural in your language. For example:
and the one who sees me sees the one who sent me (NET)
And everyone who has seen me has seen the one who sent me. (CEV)
For when you see me, you are seeing the one who sent me. (NLT)
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
τὸν πέμψαντά με
(Some words not found in SR-GNT: καί ὁ θεωρῶν ἐμέ θεωρεῖ τόν πέμψαντα μέ)
Here, the one having sent me refers to God. See how you translated this phrase in the previous verse.
12:1-50 Two stories build simultaneously. A growing number of people are praising Jesus (this climaxes in 12:12-13), and the authorities are increasingly determined to arrest him and put him to death.
• John records three events that occurred just days prior to Passover (12:1-11, 12-19, 20-36). Then he explains why most of the people refused to believe and details Jesus’ final public appeal (12:37-50).
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
