Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - John 17:15-16

Jesus’ was not asking the Father to remove the Eleven from the hostile world as He was about to leave it. He was petitioning Him to keep them loyal to Himself while they continued to live in it. Jesus repeated the thought of John 17:14 b in John 17:16 to stress the disciples’ essential distinction from the world. It was, therefore, protection from "the evil" (Gr. ek tou ponerou) in the world that they needed. This phrase could mean evil generally, or it could be a reference to the evil one,... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - John 17:1-26

Christ’s High-Priestly Prayer1-26. Christ’s Great Intercession for Himself, for the Apostles, and for the World. This prayer is often, and suitably called Christ’s ’High-priestly prayer,’ because in it He solemnly consecrates Himself to be priest and victim in the approaching sacrifice. The veil is drawn back for a moment from the inner sanctuary of His mind, and we are enabled to contemplate with awe and reverence the nature of that close communion which He habitually maintained with His... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - John 17:15

(15) I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world.—The thought may naturally have come to their minds that they would be most effectually kept from the hatred and danger of which He had spoken if they were to be with Him taken out of the world. But there is for them a work in the world (John 17:18; John 17:24). He has finished the work His Father gave Him to do; He has glorified the Father on the earth (John 17:4). There is a work for them to glorify Him (John 17:10), and He prays... read more

John 17:0 During his last illness John Knox was accustomed to hear each day the seventeenth chapter of St. John's Gospel, a chapter of the Epistle to the Ephesians, and the fifty-third of Isaiah. On the last day of his life (Monday, November 24, 1572) a little after noon, 'he caused his wife to read the fifteenth chapter of the First Epistle to the Corinthians, of the Resurrection, to whom he said, "Is not that a comfortable chapter?" A little after, "Now, for the last, I commend my soul,... read more

XVI. CHRIST’S INTERCESSORY PRAYER."These things spake Jesus; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, He said, Father, the hour is come; glorify Thy Son, that the Son may glorify Thee: even as Thou gavest Him authority over all flesh, that whatsoever Thou hast given Him, to them He should give eternal life. And this is life eternal, that they should know Thee the only true God, and Him whom Thou didst send, even Jesus Christ. I glorified Thee on the earth, having accomplished the work which Thou... read more

CHAPTER 17 1. The Finished Work. (John 17:1-5 .) 2. The Father’s Name and the Father’s Gift. (John 17:6-10 .) 3. Not of the World but Kept in it. (John 17:11-16 .) 4. Sanctification of Himself for His Own. (John 17:17-21 .) 5. The Glorification. (John 17:22-26 .) His words were ended to the eleven disciples and next He spoke to the Father, and His disciples listened to all His blessed words. What moments these must have been! His words to the Father told them once more how he loved them,... read more

Geneva Study Bible - John 17:15

17:15 {4} I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.(4) He shows what type of deliverance he means: not that they should be in no danger, but that in being preserved from all they might prove by experience that the doctrine of salvation is true, which doctrine they received from his mouth to deliver to others. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - John 17:1-26

HIS MINISTRY OF INTERCESSION (v.1) In chapters 13 to 16 the Lord has completed what He had to tell His disciples, ending with the empowering ministry of chapter 16. He has made every provision for them. But in chapter 17 He adds to this His own faithful intercession on their behalf before the Father's face, His speaking to the Father for them. How marvelous it is that we should be privileged to hear this precious prayer, the communing of the Son with the Father on behalf of His beloved... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - John 17:1-26

THE INTERCESSORY PRAYER This chapter because of its subject, and its great preciousness is worthy to stand out by itself. Bernard divides the prayer into three great parts and a sequel: 1. for His work and glory (John 17:1-5 ); 2. for the disciples (John 17:6-19 ); 3. for all believers (John 17:20-24 ); 4. the sequel (John 17:25-26 ). The first and second part he subdivides again into two sections (John 17:1-3 and John 17:4-5 , and John 17:6-10 and John 17:11-19 , respectively). The third... read more
