John 1:51-1964 in the Bible in Basic English reads: “And he said to him, Truly I say to you all, You will see heaven opening and God's angels going up and coming down on the Son of man.”

John 1:51-1964 is found in the New Testament, in the book of John, chapter 1, verses 51–1964.

John is traditionally attributed to John the Apostle, son of Zebedee. It was written c. AD 85–95.

John's Gospel opens not in Bethlehem but "in the beginning," declaring Jesus to be the eternal Word made flesh. Through seven sign-miracles and seven "I AM" sayings, it presents Jesus as the bread, the light, the way, and the resurrection — that we might believe and have life in his name.

John explores themes including Word Made Flesh, Belief, Eternal Life, I AM, Love. These themes shape the meaning and context of John 1:51-1964.
