In verse 31, Jesus says that ," If you remain in my word, you are really my disciples." So Jesus is talking about those who listen to his "word." His "word" is spiritual truth, life giving truth. He goes on to compare the sinful human condition to being captive in verse 34. Jesus, later in the same conversation, turns his attention his enemies, the religious leaders of his day. These ones were plotting to kill him. He says that their works are wicked. He says in verse 37 that his word was making no progress among them. Their works were dead works. So he is also making the point that the truth would also set one free from these dead works and the false teachings, if they would only listen and obey. So now we se the context of his words at verse 33 where he says,"You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." The truth that we need to know is his Jesus of truth, spiritual truth. The freedom that we gain from that is salvation from our sinful condition. We also gain freedom from dead works and from false religious teachings. === ===

John 8:32 states, "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." This verse emphasizes the idea that understanding and living by the truth leads to spiritual and emotional freedom. It encourages followers to seek truth in order to experience liberation from falsehoods and burdens.
