“But who is quoted above?”
A Jew who knows that God is defined only as Spirit.
You mean this Jew?
John 14:
John 14 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB) 14 Dont let yourselves be disturbed. Trust in God and trust in me. 2 In my Fathers house are many places to live. If there werent, I would have told you; because I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 Since I am going and preparing a place for you, I will return to take you with me; so that where I am, you may be also. 4 Furthermore, you know where Im going; and you know the way there.
5 Toma said to him, Lord, we dont know where youre going; so how can we know the way? 6 Yeshua said, I AM the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except through me. 7 Because you have known me, you will also know my Father; from now on, you do know him in fact, you have seen him.
8 Philip said to him, Lord, show us the Father, and it will be enough for us. 9 Yeshua replied to him, Have I been with you so long without your knowing me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father; so how can you say, Show us the Father? 10 Dont you believe that I am united with the Father, and the Father united with me? What I am telling you, I am not saying on my own initiative; the Father living in me is doing his own works. 11 Trust me, that I am united with the Father, and the Father united with me. But if you cant, then trust because of the works themselves. 12 Yes, indeed! I tell you that whoever trusts in me will also do the works I do! Indeed, he will do greater ones, because I am going to the Father. 13 In fact, whatever you ask for in my name, I will do; so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you ask me for something in my name, I will do it.
