ヨハネの福音書 17:8-9 JCB

Expositor's Bible Commentary - John 17:1-26

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

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - John 17:1-26

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

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

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - John 17:1-26

Unity In Christ Joh 17:20-23 What is Christian unity? Is it an affair of regulation, compromise, concession, toleration, for the sake of good neighbourhood, and easy social and ecclesiastical movement? That view of Christian unity certainly receives no support from the Lord's intercessory prayer. The deepest meaning of Christian unity is union with Christ, oneness with the Son of God, identification with Christ in spirit, purpose, and labour; and coming out of that, as a cause and an... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - John 17:6-19

I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word. (7) Now they have known that all things whatsoever thou hast given me are of thee. (8) For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me. (9) I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast... read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - John 17:7-8

Now they have known that all things which thou gavest men, are from thee. That is, says St. Augustine,[3] they now know, and will know more perfectly hereafter, that I myself am from thee, or proceed from thee, and am sent by thee to redeem the world. (Witham) read more

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - John 17:9

I pray for them, I pray not for the world. That is, now in this prayer, when I desire special graces and assistances for them, to discharge their duty, as my apostles; yet we must take notice, that (ver. 20.) Christ prays for all those, who should believe in him. He also prayed (Luke xxiii. 34.) for all, even for those that crucified him, Father, forgive the, for they know not what they do. (Witham) --- The prayer I now offer up to thee, O my Father, is all in behalf of my disciples, it is... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - John 17:1-10

1-5 Our Lord prayed as a man, and as the Mediator of his people; yet he spoke with majesty and authority, as one with and equal to the Father. Eternal life could not be given to believers, unless Christ, their Surety, both glorified the Father, and was glorified of him. This is the sinner's way to eternal life, and when this knowledge shall be made perfect, holiness and happiness will be fully enjoyed. The holiness and happiness of the redeemed, are especially that glory of Christ, and of his... read more

Frank Binford Hole

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - John 17:1-99

John 17 WE NEED TO have in our minds the five words that close the previous chapter as we read the opening words of this chapter. He who had overcome the world “lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said, Father.” In the knowledge of the Father and in the light of heaven, what is the world worth? And what are its threats or persecutions? Here was the Son of God Himself in the absolute fulness of both, and hence the world was, so to speak, beneath His feet. He is now going to present Himself before... read more
