Contextual Overview
27"Now My soul is troubled and deeply distressed; what shall I say? 'Father, save Me from this hour [of trial and agony]'? But it is for this [very] purpose that I have come to this hour [this time and place]. 28"[Rather, I will say,] 'Father, glorify (honor, extol) Your name!'" Then a voice came from heaven saying, "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again." 29The crowd of people who stood nearby and heard the voice said that it had thundered; others said, "An angel has spoken to Him!" 30Jesus answered, "This voice has come for your sake, not for mine. 31"Now judgment is upon this world [the sentence is being passed]. Now the ruler of this world (Satan) will be cast out. 32"And I, if and when I am lifted up from the earth [on the cross], will draw all people to Myself [Gentiles, as well as Jews]." 33He said this to indicate the kind of death by which He was to die.34At this the crowd answered Him, "We have heard from the Law that the Christ is to remain forever; how then can You say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up'? Who is this Son of Man?" 35So Jesus said to them, "The Light is among you [only] a little while longer. Walk while you have the Light [keep on living by it], so that darkness will not overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going [he is drifting aimlessly]. 36"While you have the Light, believe and trust in the Light [have faith in it, hold on to it, rely on it], so that you may become sons of Light [being filled with Light as followers of God]." Jesus said these things, and then He left and hid Himself from them.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
signifying: John 18:32, John 21:19
Reciprocal: Mark 9:10 - what Luke 23:33 - they crucified John 8:21 - I go John 12:24 - if
Gill's Notes on the Bible
This he said,.... These are the words of the evangelist, interpreting the design of Christ in the above words, thereby
signifying what death he should die; the phrase of being lifted up from the earth, not only signified his death, but the kind, or manner of it, that it should be by crucifixion; a person crucified being stretched forth upon a cross, and that erected, was lifted up between earth and heaven.
