John 13:32 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

God was glorified in Christ by his death upon the cross in obedience to his Father's will; (thus Peter, 1 Thessalonians 21:19, is said by his death to glorify God); and as he was declared to be the Son of God; and as by him the world was brought to the knowledge of God, as by his spiritual and heavenly doctrine, so by the miracles he wrought. From hence our Lord concludes, that God should glorify Christ in himself; so as the glory of the Father and the Son are the same, they are mutually glorified each in other: if the Son be glorified, the Father is also glorified; and if the Father be glorified, the Son is also glorified; the Father and the Son are mutually glorified each in other. And the Father (saith our Saviour) in a short time will further glorify him, by taking him up into heaven, and making the whole person of the Mediator glorious in heaven.

John 13:32

32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.
