In John 12:47; John 18:37; Luke 6:47; Acts 22:1, it is better to consider the pronoun μου which precedes as a possessive genitive rather than, with Buttmann, 167 (145f), to assume a double genitive of the object, one of the person and one of the thing. The Johannean phrase ἀκούειν παρά τοῦ Θεοῦ, or τί παρά Θεοῦ, signifies a. to perceive in the soul the inward communication of God: John 6:45.

b. to be taught by God's inward communication: John 8:26, 40 (so, too, the simple ἀκούειν in John 8:30); to be taught by the devil, according to the reading of L T Tr WH, ἠκούσατε παρά τοῦ πατρός, in John 8:38. For the rest cf. Buttmann, 165 (144ff); 301 (258ff) (Compare: διακούω, εἰσακούω, ἐπακούω, παρακούω, προακούω, ὑπακούω.)

Topical Lexicon
Foundational Theme of Hearing in Scripture

The verb translated “to hear” saturates the New Testament, entwining the physical act of listening with moral and spiritual responsiveness. From the angel’s pronouncement heard by Mary (Luke 1:41) to the thunderous voice John hears on Patmos (Revelation 1:10), Scripture presents hearing as the divinely appointed gateway for receiving revelation. “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ” (Romans 10:17). Whether addressed to crowds on Galilee’s hillsides or to seven churches in Asia, the invitation is identical: God speaks; humanity must hear.

Connection between Hearing and Obedience

Biblical hearing is never passive. Jesus closes the Sermon on the Mount with a contrast between “everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them” and “everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them” (Matthew 7:24, 26). The verb therefore assumes a covenantal weight: to hear is to heed. This linkage undergirds apostolic exhortations such as James 1:22, “Be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.” The New Testament consistently warns that mere auditory exposure without obedient response incurs judgment (Hebrews 3:7-19; Acts 28:26-27).

Hearing as the Pathway to Faith and Salvation

Throughout Acts the Spirit advances the gospel by enabling people to hear. At Pentecost “each one heard them speaking in his own language” (Acts 2:6), preparing the harvest of three thousand souls. Cornelius assembles relatives and friends “to hear everything the Lord has commanded” (Acts 10:33). Lydia’s heart is opened “to heed what Paul was saying” (Acts 16:14). In every case saving faith is birthed through hearing apostolic proclamation about Jesus Christ crucified and risen. Evangelism therefore prioritizes clear, faithful speaking so that hearers may respond in repentance and belief.

Christ’s Call: “He who has ears to hear”

No saying of Jesus recurs more pointedly: “He who has ears to hear, let him hear” (Mark 4:9; Revelation 2:7, etc.). The refrain follows parables, mountaintop revelations, and prophetic oracles, underscoring personal accountability to divine truth. In Revelation the ascended Christ addresses each church with commendation, correction, and promise, adding the refrain to highlight the Spirit-empowered ability—and responsibility—of believers to discern and obey.

The Shepherd’s Voice and the Sheep

John 10 supplies the relational dimension: “The sheep listen to his voice… He calls his own sheep by name… and the sheep follow him because they know his voice” (John 10:3-4). Genuine discipleship is characterized by ongoing attentiveness to the Shepherd. His voice, mediated through Scripture and illumined by the Spirit, guides, protects, and assures. Conversely, strangers’ voices signify deception; true sheep “will never follow a stranger” (John 10:5).

Hearing in Apostolic Preaching and Missions

Mission narratives highlight two patterns: proclamation and opposition. Some “were appointed to eternal life and believed” upon hearing (Acts 13:48); others “stopped their ears” and rushed Stephen (Acts 7:57). Paul’s epistles often reference what churches “heard” (Galatians 1:23; Colossians 1:6) to remind them of the apostolic gospel’s purity amid competing voices. Ministry strategy therefore centers on ensuring the sound is clear (1 Corinthians 14:8-9) and intelligible to every ethnic group (Romans 15:21).

Warning Passages: Hearing without Heeding

Quoting Isaiah, Jesus explains parabolic preaching: “Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand” (Matthew 13:13-15). Persistent refusal to heed hardens the heart, resulting in judicial deafness. Hebrews applies the same warning to professing believers tempted to drift: “Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts” (Hebrews 3:15). Eschatologically, those who refuse the gospel will “pay the penalty of eternal destruction” (2 Thessalonians 1:8), having ignored the summons of grace.

Judicial and Forensic Contexts

In legal scenes hearing denotes formal testimony. The Sanhedrin declares, “You have heard the blasphemy” (Mark 14:64). Festus and Agrippa convene to “hear” Paul (Acts 25:22; 26:3). Jesus’ trials reveal the irony of judges who physically hear yet remain spiritually deaf, whereas Pilate reluctantly acknowledges, “Everyone who is of the truth listens to My voice” (John 18:37).

Eschatological Hearing: Final Call and Judgment

Jesus foretells a climactic moment: “The hour is coming when all who are in their graves will hear His voice and come out” (John 5:28-29). The same authoritative voice that calmed seas and summoned Lazarus will summon the dead—some to life, others to judgment. Revelation amplifies auditory imagery: trumpets, peals of thunder, and multitudes shouting “Hallelujah!” (Revelation 19:6). Eternity’s destinies pivot on whether one has listened to the Lamb in time.

Pastoral and Communal Implications

Local assemblies are exhorted to listen attentively to Scripture read aloud (1 Timothy 4:13), to Spirit-led prophecy that “everyone may learn and be encouraged” (1 Corinthians 14:31), and to one another’s needs (James 1:19). Shepherds must cultivate congregations that are “quick to listen” both to God and to brethren, reflecting the relational nature of Christian community.

Worship and Prayer: God Hears

The verb also describes the divine posture toward His people. Jesus assures, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me” (John 11:41). John writes, “If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us” (1 John 5:14). Confidence in a listening God fuels intercession, praise, and perseverance. Conversely, God does not heed the unrepentant (John 9:31), reminding worshipers to approach with clean hands and devoted hearts.

Historical and Cultural Background

First-century Judaism esteemed oral transmission; synagogue worship revolved around public reading. Greeks prided themselves on new ideas (Acts 17:21). Into these contexts the gospel advanced primarily through preaching rather than manuscript distribution. The prevalence of “hearing” vocabulary mirrors this auditory culture and anchors Christian mission in spoken proclamation empowered by the Spirit.

Summary

Across the New Testament the call to hear is the call to believe, obey, and live. The God who spoke creation into existence continues to address humanity through His Son, Scripture, and Spirit. Blessed are those who hear and keep what is spoken, for “the time is near” (Revelation 1:3).
