John 13:32 Meaning and Commentary

John 13:32

If God be glorified in him
Seeing this is a certain truth, is indisputably matter of fact, that all the perfections of God are glorified in Christ, by his sufferings and death:

God shall also glorify him in himself;
either "with himself"; with his own glory, which was promised to Christ, and which he had before the world was, and for which he prays, ( John 17:5 ) , or by himself: by his own power, in raising him from the dead, setting him at his own right hand, and crowning him with glory and honour:

and shall straightway glorify him;
this he will do very quickly, he will not leave him in the grave, nor suffer him to see corruption; he will raise him again the third day, and give him glory.

32 If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once.
