John8:51
If a man keep my saying. If he believes on me and obeys my commandments.
He shall never see death. To see death, or to taste of death, is the same as to die, Lk 2:26, Mt 16:28, Mk 9:1. The sense of this passage is, "He shall obtain eternal life, or he shall be raised up to that life where there shall be no death." See Jn 6:49,50, 3:36, 5:24, 11:25,26.
