Juan 13:30

30 Como él pues hubo tomado el bocado, luego salió: y era ya noche.

Juan 13:30 Meaning and Commentary

John 13:30

He then having, received the sop
As soon as ever he received it, he

went immediately out;
fearing lest an entire discovery should be made, and he be prevented accomplishing his design; or being more violently stirred up to it by, Satan, who after the sop entered into him, he directly went from Bethany to Jerusalem, to the chief priests, there, in order to consult and agree upon the delivery of him into their hands:

and it was night;
this circumstance is added, to show how eagerly he was bent upon it; that though it was night, it did not hinder or discourage him from setting out on his journey to Jerusalem; and as this was a work of darkness, the night was the fittest time for it, and was a proper emblem of the blackness of the crime he was going to perpetrate.

Juan 13:30 In-Context

28 Mas ninguno de los que estaban á la mesa entendió á qué propósito le dijo esto.
29 Porque los unos pensaban, por que Judas tenía la bolsa, que Jesús le decía: Compra lo que necesitamos para la fiesta: ó, que diese algo á los pobres.
30 Como él pues hubo tomado el bocado, luego salió: y era ya noche.
31 Entonces como él salió, dijo Jesús: Ahora es glorificado el Hijo del hombre, y Dios es glorificado en él.
32 Si Dios es glorificado en él, Dios también le glorificará en sí mismo, y luego le glorificará.
