A Twofold Witness
Commentators explain that Jesus points to two forms of undeniable evidence: his words and his works. He had already taught things that identified him as the Messiah (e.g., being the Son of God), and his miracles, performed by the Father's power, served as divine confirmation. Scholars note that their unbelief was a rejection of this clear, twofold testimony.
