An Exposition of the Gospel of St. John is unavailable, but you can change that!

John MacEvilly’s exposition of the gospel of John offers a clear, Catholic, passage-by-passage interpretation of the text. It combines traditional exegesis with moral exhortation and so has been widely used as a daily devotional. The work was originally intended for laymen, but quickly found a place as a textbook in seminary education and has seen numerous editions.

26. “For, as the Father hath life in Himself,” being essentially life, the source of all life, which He communicates at will, preserves at will, in all creatures, or takes away at will. “So He hath given to the Son also,” in His eternal generation, “to have life in HIMSELF,” to be Himself essential life, the source of all life, in every thing that exists, in every thing made by Him. Those therefore, who hear His voice and are called by Him, with a command to arise, will come forth to life.
John 5:26
