ヨハネによる福音書 17:22-24 JC

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - John 17:23

Verse 23 23.I in them, and thou in me; for he intends to teach that in him dwells all fullness of blessings, and that what was concealed in God is now manifested in him, that he may impart it to his people, as the water, flowing from the fountain by various channels, waters the fields on all sides. And hast loved them, (126) He means that it is a very striking exhibition, and a very excellent pledge, of the love of God towards believers, which the world is compelled to feel, whether it will or... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - John 17:24

Verse 24 24.Father, I will. To will is put for to desire; (129) for it expresses not a command but a prayer. But it may be understood in two ways; either that he wills that the disciples may enjoy his eternal presence, or, that God may, at length, receive them into the heavenly kingdom, to which he goes before them. That they may behold my glory. Some explain beholding his glory to mean, partaking of the glory which Christ has. Others explain it to be, to know by the experience of faith what... read more

4. The high-priestly intercession . Audible communion of the Son with the Father . The prayer which now follows reveals, in the loftiest and sublimest form, the Divine humanity of the Son of man, and the fact that, in the consciousness of Jesus as the veritable Christ of God, there was actually blended the union of the Divine and human, and a perfect exercise of the prerogatives of both. The illimitable task which writers of the second century must have set themselves to... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 17:20-23

Christian unity. Notice it— I. IN ITS IMPORT AND SCOPE . 1. Believers are to be in unity . Many and yet one, one and yet many. Many members, but one body; many bodies, but one Spirit; many believers , but one spiritual community. They are to be one with each other, with Christ, and with the Father. 2. Their union is to be universal . "Tidal they all may be one." There is to be no exception. It is not optional, but the universal rule of the society and law... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 17:22

Our Lord now proceeds to record how he has already contributed to produce this result. I also —very emphatic— have given to them —that is, to my disciples— the glory which thou gavest me . Numerous interpretations of this "glory" have been suggested, as e . g. , the glory into which he is about to enter in his glorified body; but the emphatic perfect δέδωκα , in connection with the ἐδωκάς , viz.: "I have given and am now and still giving," renders this improbable. Meyer, who... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 17:22-24

A prayer that the disciples may share in the Lord's glory. Jesus supports his petition by declaring what he has already done for his disciples. I. HE HAS ALREADY IMPARTED TO THEM A SHARE IN ' HIS GLORY . "And the glory which thou hast given me I have given them." 1. This glory is not apostolic office or gift of miracle . 2. It is not the glory of the future kingdom . 3. It is the glory of adoption . As Christ's glory consisted in his Sonship, so... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 17:23

I in them, and thou in me . He does not say, "Thou in them, as thou in me," nor "They in thee, and I in thee;" but he includes in the ἡμεῖς of the previous verse, ἐγὼ καὶ σύ , and distinctly regards himself as the mediating link of relation between the Father and the disciples. The ἐγὼ is that of the Son of God, manifested in Christ's consciousness of the God-man-hood; the σύ is the eternal and non-incarnate God. God is in him, as he is in them. They are in him, as he is... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 17:24

Now passing from this glorification of his people in the convictions and knowledge of the world, our Lord offers "as a Son to a Father," and therefore with profound naturalness, the prayer of the incarnate Loges to the eternal Father, and therefore an address indubitably supernatural and lifted above all human consciousness. It is a prayer, too, which rises from the high and unique term ἐρωτῶ (one which he never puts into the lips of his disciples) to a yet higher one, θέλω , as one who... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 17:24

Blessed with Christ. The future has for man a mysterious interest, and it exercises over him a mysterious power. Religion appeals to this, as to all natural tendencies and susceptibilities of man's being. The revelations and the promises of Christianity have regard to the vast hereafter. When our Lord prayed for his disciples, it could not be that he should omit from his prayer their future—their condition and associations in the immortal state. Without such reference the high-priestly... read more
