The Pulpit Commentary - John 12:26

Service and reward. In both parts of this declaration made by our Lord, there is a condescension to our human ignorance and imperfection . The Master makes use of language drawn from human relations and human experiences. I. WHAT CHRIST REQUIRES . 1. Service . This is not equivalent to bondage, but to personal ministration. It is a just and helpful view to take of the' Christian life, to regard it as consisting of a personal attendance upon the Lord Jesus, and a... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 12:27

Now , at this moment, has been and yet is my soul troubled ("concurrebat horror morris et ardor obedientisa," Bengel). In John 11:33 we hear that he troubled himself, and shuddered wrathfully in his "spirit" ( πνεύμετι ) at the contemplation of all the evils and curse of death; now his whole ψυχή , i.e. his life centered in its corporeal environment as a man, the self which the Son of God had taken up into the Divine essence, was in depth of agony, preluding the strong crying and... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 12:27-28

The soul-conflict of Christ. Only now and again do we observe the Savior's regard turned inwardly upon himself, upon his own feelings and anticipations. Usually his thoughts and his speech concerned others. But in this passage of his ministry he gives us an insight into his inmost heart. I. THE CRISIS OF THIS CONFLICT . The approach of the Greeks marks "the beginning of the end." Now the Son of man began to feel by anticipation the burden of the cross. Opposition and... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 12:27-30

Through trouble to triumph. I. JESUS IN TROUBLE . He was not a stranger to trouble, but this was a special one. 1. Trouble arising from a vivid realization of his approaching death and sufferings . They already cast their awful shadows upon his pure soul. The unparalleled tragedy of his death, with all its sinfulness on the part of his foes, and all its cruelties, agonies, and shame, was now acted in his soul, and it caused him to shudder. He was far from being a coward,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 12:28

The Father glorifying his Name. I. THE DESIRE OF JESUS FOR HIS FATHER 'S GLORY . Jesus did not seek that the eyes of men should be fixed in admiration on him. With powers such as never belonged to any other being of flesh and blood, he never used them for his own advancement among men. The pleasures of human ambition and human fame were far from his heart. No one truly glorifies Jesus unless he glorifies the Father of Jesus. Jesus was glad to find men drawn to him in... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 12:28-29

A heavy thunder-cloud seems to hang over him; for a moment a break in the darkness, a rift in the clouds, presents itself, and, though he might have prayed for legions of angels, he did not. The second Adam knows the issue of the tremendous trial, and, in full apprehension of the answer to his deepest prayer, he cries, Father, glorify thy Name . The "thy" is emphatic. A contrast is implied between the eternal glory and the glory of the Christ. "I am thine; thou art mine;" "Thy will be done;"... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 12:23

The hour is come - The time is come. The word “hour” commonly means a definite part or a division of a day; but it also is used to denote a brief period, and a fixed, definite, determined time. It is used in this sense here. The appointed, fixed time is come - that is, is so near at hand that it may be said to be come.The Son of man - This is the favorite title which Jesus gives to himself, denoting his union with man, and the interest he felt in his welfare. The title is used here rather than... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 12:24

Verily, verily - An expression denoting the great importance of what he was about to say. We cannot but admire the wisdom by which he introduces the subject of his death. They had seen his triumph. They supposed that he was about to establish his kingdom. He told them that the time had come in which he was to be glorified, but not in the manner in which they expected. It was to be by his death. But as they would not at once see how this could be, as it would appear to dash their hopes, he takes... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 12:25

He that loveth his life ... - This was a favorite principle, a sort of “axiom” with the Lord Jesus, which he applied to himself as well as to his followers. See the Matthew 10:39 note; Luke 9:24 note. read more
