And the glory (
kagw thn doxan). Literally, "And I the glory," with emphasis on "I." It is the glory of the Incarnate Word (Bernard), cf.
2 Corinthians 1:14 ;
2 Corinthians 2:11 , not the glory of the Eternal Word mentioned in
2 Corinthians 17:24 . Bengel says:
Quanta majestas Christianorum! Then verse
2 Corinthians 22 repeats the unity prayed for in verse
2 Corinthians 21 .
