Spurgeon's Verse Expositions of the Bible - John 17:9-10

Christ's Pastoral Prayer for His People September 1, 1889 by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) "I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them." John 17:9-10 . To begin with, I remark that our Lord Jesus pleads for his own people. When he puts on his priestly breastplate, it is for the tribes whose names are there. When he presents the atoning sacrifice, it is for Israel... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - John 17:1-26

Chapter 17These words spake Jesus, and he lifted up his eyes to heaven ( John 17:1 ),Now He is finished with His disciples and He turns now to the Father. He said, "I am not alone; the Father is with Me." And conscious of the Father, He now offers what should be titled the Lord's Prayer, for this is indeed the Lord's Prayer. He gave to the disciples a model prayer, which is often called the Lord's Prayer. But this is the true Lord's Prayer. "He lifted up his eyes to heaven,"and he said, Father,... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - John 17:1-26

John 17:1 . Father, the hour is come, glorify thy Son. By Father the divinity is understood, the Father being the fountain of deity.

John 17:6-8I have manifested Thy Name unto the men which Thou gavest Me.Christ’s work upon earthI. ITS NATURE. The manifestation of the name of God. (John 17:6). In Himself invisible and incomprehensible (John 6:46; John 6:46; Job 37:23; Job 37:23; 1 Timothy 6:16), who and what He was must have remained a secret. Genesis 32:29; Judges 13:18), had not God been pleased to make some disclosure thereof. This He did in creation (Psalms 19:1-3; Psalms 19:1-3; Romans 1:20), and still does in... read more

John 17:9-16I pray for themThe keeping of the saintsI.THE PERSONS. “Those whom Thou hast given Me.” The disciples in contrast 1. With the world (John 17:9). Christ meant, not that men, as men, were excluded from His intercessions, but that they were not then the object of His pleadings; He was then acting as the Church’s High Priest, preparing to sanctify Himself as a sacrifice for His believing people. Hence the unbelieving world had no direct interest in the blessings He was asking. 2. With... read more

9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine. Ver. 9. I pray for them ] Christ hath left us this prayer here recorded, as a pattern of that intercession he incessantly maketh for us at the right hand of his heavenly Father. Joab was heard for Absalom: shall not Christ for us? Solomon denied his mother’s request, 1 Kings 2:22 ; God will not deny Christ’s.
