John 3:16
John 3: 16 (Scholars Version) - This is how God loved the world: God gave up an only son, so that everyone who believes in him will not be lost but have real life.....
The fourth evangelist's style of speech and comment is exemplified by the remarks in 3:31-36. These remarks are the creation of the evangelist. There is no suggestion that they should be attributed to Jesus. John 13:14-21 is written in the same style and with comparable content. Had these verse been included in quotation marks as words allegedly spoken by Jesus, the fellows would have course have labeled them black. *[Meaning "Jesus did not say this, it represents the perspective or content of a later
or different tradition."]
It should be recalled that quotation marks do not appear in the original Greek manuscripts of any of the gospels; most punctuation marks have been provided by modern editors and translators.
John 3:14-21, in the judgement of the fellows, should not be enclosed in quotation marks. The Scholars Version places closing quotation marks at the end of v. 13, although some modern translations incorrectly include vs. 14-21 in Jesus' quoted speech.
