Jesus’s statement relates to his superiority to Abraham in the plan and purpose of God. The Messiah Jesus was known by God before Abraham was called in God’s purpose.2.

All of the “I am” statements of Jesus in John 8 relate to his claim to be “the light of the world”.We examine the Greek verb genesthai and see that especially in the Gospel of John it means to “come into being at some point in the future”. John For additional evidence that the Trinitarian, “deity of Christ” interpretation of John 8:58 is wrong, see here. https://www.angelfire.com/space/thegospeltruth/TTD/verses/john8_58.html--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/onegodreport-podcast/support
