When Jesus had spoken these things, He araised His eyes to heaven in prayer and said, “Father, the 1hour has come. bGlorify Your Son, so that Your Son may glorify You.I.e. the time of Jesus’ death.John 11:41John 7:39; 13:31f 2 Just as aYou have given Him power and authority over all mankind, now glorify Him so that bHe may give eternal life 1cto all whom You have given Him to be His—permanently and forever.A reference to election or predestination. Also see John 6:39; 17:6, 9, 24; Acts 13:48; Rom 8:29-33; Eph 1:3-6; 2 Thess 2:13; 1 Pet 1:2.John 3:35John 10:28John 6:37, 39; 17:6, 9, 24 3 Now this is eternal life: that they may know You, athe only true supreme and sovereign God, and in the same manner know Jesus as the Christ whom bYou have sent.John 5:44John 3:17; 17:8, 21, 23, 25 4 aI have glorified You down here on the earth bby 1completing the work that You gave Me to do.Much of Jesus’ discourse and prayer in John 13-17 is reminiscent of God’s comparison of rain and snow to His word in Is 55:10, 11. Like God’s word, Jesus, who was introduced by John as the Word (John 1:1), comes from God (John 16:28; 17:8), accomplishes God’s desire (John 14:10; 17:4, 8) and then returns to God (John 13:33; 14:4; 17:13).The themes of joy and peace found in Isaiah 55:12 also resonate throughout John 13-17; joy (John 15:11; 16:20-24; 17:13) and peace (John 14:27; 16:33). Isaiah 55; 56 has many points of connection with John’s Gospel as a whole, most notably the invitations to quench thirst (Is 55:1; John 4:13, 14; 7:37) and receive bread (Is 55:2; John 6:26-35, 48-51). Other points of connection between Is 55; 56 and John include the tie between listening and living, appeals to witnesses, calls to obedience, the idea of a special window of God’s nearness, and the inclusion of the Gentiles in salvation.John 13:31Luke 22:37; John 4:34 5 Now, Father, aglorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory and majesty that I had bwith You before the world existed.John 17:1John 1:1; 8:58; 17:24; Phil 2:6
6 “aI have manifested Your name and revealed Your very self, Your real self to the people whom bYou have given Me out of the world; they were cYours and You gave them to Me, and they have dkept and obeyed Your word.John 17:26John 6:37, 39; 17:2, 9, 24John 17:9John 8:51 7 Now at last they know with confident assurance that all You have given Me is from You it is really and truly Yours. 8 For athe words which You gave Me bI have given them; and they received and accepted them and truly understood with confident assurance that cI came from You from Your presence, and they believed without any doubt that dYou sent Me.John 6:68; 12:49John 15:15; 17:14, 26John 8:42; 16:27, 30John 3:17; 17:18, 21, 23, 25 9 aI pray for them; bI do not pray for the world, but for those cYou have given Me, because dthey belong to You;Luke 22:32; John 14:16Luke 23:34; John 17:20fJohn 6:37, 39; 17:2, 6, 24John 17:6 10 and aall things that are Mine are Yours, and all things that are Yours are Mine; and I am glorified in them.John 16:15 11 I am no longer in the world; yet athey are still in the world, and bI am coming to You. cHoly Father, keep them in Your name, the name dwhich You have given Me, so that ethey may be one just as We are.John 13:1John 7:33; 17:13John 17:25John 17:6; Phil 2:9; Rev 19:12John 17:21f; Rom 12:5; Gal 3:28 12 While I was with them, I was keeping them in Your name awhich You have given Me; and I guarded them and protected them, and bnot one of them was lost except 1cthe son of destruction, so that the dScripture would be fulfilled. Ps 41:9; John 6:70Hebrew idiom for one destined to perish. The betrayal of Christ by Judas Iscariot was foretold in Ps 41:9; cf John 13:18.John 17:6; Phil 2:9; Rev 19:12John 6:39; 18:9John 6:70Ps 41:9; John 13:18
13 But now aI am coming to You; and bI say these things while I am still in the world so that they may experience My cjoy made full and complete and perfect within them filling their hearts with My delight.John 7:33; 17:11John 15:11John 3:29 14 I have given to them Your word the message You gave Me; and athe world has hated them because bthey are not of the world and do not belong to the world, just as I am not of the world and do not belong to it.John 15:19John 8:23; 17:16 15 I do not ask You to take them out of the world, but that You keep them and protect them from athe evil one.Matt 5:37 16 aThey are not of the world, just as I am not of the world.John 17:14 17 aSanctify them in the truth set them apart for Your purposes, make them holy; Your word is truth.John 15:3 18 Just as aYou commissioned and sent Me into the world, bI also have commissioned and sent them into the world.John 3:17; 17:3, 8, 21, 23, 25Matt 10:5; John 4:38; 20:21 19 For their sake 1I asanctify Myself to do Your will, so that they also may be bsanctified set apart, dedicated, made holy cin Your truth.Jesus’ sacrificial death allows Christians to be truly sanctified—set apart for God’s purpose.John 15:13John 15:32 Cor 7:14; Col 1:6; 1 John 3:18
20 “I do not pray for these alone it is not for their sake only that I make this request, but also for all those who will ever believe and trust in Me through their message, 21 that they all may be one; ajust as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, bso that the world may believe without any doubt that cYou sent Me.John 10:38; 17:11, 23John 17:8John 3:17; 17:3, 8, 18, 23, 25
22 I have given to them the aglory and honor which You have given Me, that they may be one, just as We are one;John 1:14; 17:24 23 aI in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected and completed into one, so that the world may know without any doubt that bYou sent Me, and that You have cloved them, just as You have loved Me.John 10:38; 17:11, 21John 3:17; 17:3, 8, 18, 21, 25John 16:27 24 Father, I desire that athey also, whom You have given to Me as Your gift to Me, bmay be with Me where I am, so that they may see My cglory which You have given Me, because You loved Me before dthe foundation of the world.John 17:2John 12:26John 1:14; 17:22Matt 25:34; John 17:5
25 “O ajust and righteous Father, although bthe world has not known You and has never acknowledged You and the revelation of Your mercy, yet I have always known You; and these believers know without any doubt that cYou sent Me;John 17:11; 1 John 1:9John 7:29; 15:21John 3:17; 17:3, 8, 18, 21, 23 26 aand I have made Your name known to them, and will continue to make it known, so that bthe love with which You have loved Me may be in them overwhelming their heart, and I may be in them.”John 17:6John 15:9
