John 17
Scofield Reference Notes
These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:
[1] glorify

Seven petitions:

(1) That Jesus may be glorified as the Son who has glorified the

Father (Jn 17:1), Phil 2:9-11.

(2) for restoration to the eternal glory (Jn 17:5);

(3) for the safety of believers from

(a) the world (Jn 17:11)

(b) the evil one (Jn 17:15);

(4) for the sanctification of believers (Jn 17:17);

(5) for the spiritual unity of believers (Jn 17:21);

(6) that the world may believe (Jn 17:21);

(7) that believers may be with Him in heaven to behold and share His glory (Jn 17:24).

As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him.
[2] give eternal life

Christ's gifts to those whom the Father gave Him: Eternal life Jn 17:2; the Father's name (Jn 17:6,26 20:17), the Father's words (Jn 17:8,14)); His own joy (Jn 17:13); His own glory (Jn 17:22).

[3] given him

Seven times Jesus speaks of believers as given to Him by the Father (Jn 17:2,6,9,11,12,24). Jesus Christ is God's love-gift to the world (Jn 3:16), and believers are the Father's love-gift to Jesus Christ. It is Christ who commits the believer to the Father for safe keeping, Song that the believer's security rests upon the Father's faithfulness to His Son Jesus Christ.

And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was.
I have manifested thy name unto the men which thou gavest me out of the world: thine they were, and thou gavest them me; and they have kept thy word.
