4And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
5Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Verse explanation
This is one more of the “I am” declarations in the Gospel of John. Thomas had just asked how to get to the place where Jesus was going, and the answer changes the meaning of the question: it is not about a physical route, it is about Jesus Himself being the way to reach the Father.
From the John 14 study in Bible in Stories.
