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.
