Matthew Poole and continuators on John 14:22

22 Judas saith unto [illegible: 1 letter]im not Iscariot Lord, how is it that thou wilt ma[illegible: 1 letter]i[illegible: 1 letter]est thy self unto us, and not unto the world ?

Iude the Brother of Iames, Iude 1. the Son of Alpheus, not Iudas the Son of Simon, who from the City whence he was, was called Iscariot, and was the Traytor; asks our Saviour,

how it was, or wherefore it was that he would manifest himself to them, and not to t[illegible: 1 letter]e world? This question either proceeded out of ignorance, not aright understanding of what manifestation of himself Christ here spake; or out of a pious desire, that all might be made partakers of the same grace with them; or out of the Apostles modest opinion of himself and his Brethren; as if he had said, Lord, what are we that thou shouldest speak of any more special manifestation of rhy love to us, than to the rest of the world? Or out of a deep admiration of Gods unsearchable Judgments in leaving some of the World, whiles he made choice of others to dignifie, with such special distinguishing favours, hiding those things from the wise and prudent, which he revealed to babes.
