"真理"原文與約翰一章十四、十七節的"實際"同。這真理,並不是(道理)上所謂的真理,乃是神聖事物的(實際),就是主(自己)。(見十四6注2,一14,17。)八章三十二節說,(真理)必叫你們得以自由;三十六節說,神的(兒子)叫你們自由。這證明神的兒子,主自己,就是真理。主既是神的
(具體化身),(西二9,)祂就是神所是的(實際)。因此,實際就是神的神聖元素,給我們實化。當主這位偉大的"(我是)"進入我們裡面作(生命),祂就在我們裡面作(光)照耀,將神聖的元素帶進我們裡面作(實際)。(參約八32注1)

Filling the Blanks (Please double-click the blanks):
In Greek the same as reality in John 1:14, 17. The truth is not the so-called truth of (doctrine) but the (reality) of the divine things, which is the Lord (Himself) (see note 62 in ch. 14; 1:14, 17). This verse says that "the (truth) shall set you free," whereas v. 36 says that "the (Son) sets you free." This proves that the Son, the Lord Himself, is the truth. Since the Lord is the (embodiment) of God (Col. 2:9), He is the (reality) of what God is. Hence, reality is the very divine element of God realized by us. When the Lord as the great (I Am) comes into us as (life), He shines within us as (light), bringing the divine element as (reality) into us.(See John 8:32 note 1)
