John 7:16 shows Jesus' humility and the source of His teaching. When asked about His authority, He declares that His teaching is not His own but comes from the one who sent Him—the Father. This verse points to the ultimate source of all true teaching: God Himself. Jesus, in His earthly ministry, constantly pointed others to the Father as the source of His wisdom and authority. For believers, this is a powerful reminder that all wisdom and knowledge come from God, and it is His authority that grants truth its power. Jesus' teaching, though divine, was delivered with humility, and this example calls us to seek God’s guidance in all things.
