John 8:38 Douay-Rheims

I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.

Theophylact of Ohrid

c. 1055–1107 Orthodox

But when you hear, I speak that which I have seen, do not think it means bodily vision, but innate knowledge, sure, and approved. For as the eyes when they see an object, see it wholly and correctly; so I speak with certainty what I know from My Father.
