The next day
This phrase indicates a continuation of the narrative, suggesting a sequence of events that are unfolding in a deliberate manner. In the context of the Gospel of John, the phrase "the next day" is used to mark the progression of John the Baptist's testimony about Jesus. It emphasizes the unfolding revelation of Jesus' identity and mission. Historically, this phrase situates the events in a real-time framework, allowing readers to understand the immediacy and urgency of the message being conveyed.

John was standing
The image of John standing is significant. It portrays him as a steadfast and resolute figure, embodying the role of a prophet who is unwavering in his mission. The Greek word for "standing" (ἑστὼς, hestōs) implies a position of readiness and alertness. John the Baptist is depicted as a watchman, prepared to witness and testify to the coming of the Messiah. This posture reflects his dedication and the pivotal role he plays in the divine plan.

with two of his disciples
This phrase highlights the presence of John the Baptist's disciples, indicating that he was not alone in his ministry. The mention of "two of his disciples" suggests a small, intimate group of followers who were closely associated with John. In the broader scriptural context, these disciples are about to transition from following John to following Jesus, illustrating the shift from the old covenant to the new. The presence of disciples also underscores the communal aspect of faith and the importance of mentorship and guidance in spiritual growth.

(35) Again the next day after John stood.--Better, The next day again John was standing. The description is of a scene present to the mind, and by one of the two disciples (John 1:40). The "again" refers to John 1:29.

Two of his disciples.--There is no reason for thinking that these were absent on the previous day, and that the testimony is specially repeated for them. Rather it is that, in that band of disciples too, there is an inner circle of those who, because they can receive more, are taught more. They had heard the words before, it may be had talked together about them, at least in individual thought had tried to follow them, and now they have come to the Teacher again. Can we doubt what questions fill the heart or shape themselves in word? He had passed through their struggle from darkness into light. There is a Presence with them which he now knows, and before which his own work must cease. The passing voice is no longer needed now that the abiding Word has come. Can we doubt what his answer is?

Verses 35-51. - 3. The first disciples, and their testimony. Verses 35-39. -

(1) John directs his own disciples to Jesus. Verse 35. - On the morrow, again John was standing, and two from his disciples; implying that there were many others within hearing of his voice, or, at least, under his influence. The imperfect tense of the verb εἱστήκει suggests the idea that he was waiting for some fresh announcement, some providential event, to determine his course. The "again" refers back to ver. 29. Much must be read between the lines as to these disciples, their excited interest in the words already uttered by their master.
