1 | Pronouns in John 12:41. Are they Jesus | John 12:41 | Robert Nicholson | 64611 | ||
Revbray: In v. 41 John is telling us when Isaiah spoke the words of the prophecy in V. 40. "When he saw his glory" I believe refers to: "In the year that king Uzziah died I saw also the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up..." (Isaiah 6:1) In this vision the Lord is seen here in all his glory and majesty, he could say "mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts" (Isaiah 6:5) In v. 8 the Lord speaks in plural pronoun "us". I believe we can say that Jesus is repsented in the Godhead and was co-equal and co-eternal and shared in the glory of God. However, when he came to this earth his glory was veiled as he "made himself of no reputation" (Phil.2:7) Thus, I believe in John 12:41 it is referring to Isaiah who saw the glory of the Lord of hosts.

2 | Pronouns in John 12:41. Are they Jesus | John 12:41 | Ray | 64616 | ||
Hi Robert, I think that it is good to work on things at the same time. You have a great answer here. Your Phil 2:7 reference is good also. I believe that when "he 'made himself of no reputation'" is when He poured out Himself and being found in appearance as a (Man), He humbled Himself. By recognizing Him as a (Man) I glorify Him. I compare Philippians with John 4:19 where I see the woman at the well recognizing Jesus as a (Prophet). I appreciate how we came to much the same conclusions as we worked. From the heart, Ray |
