John 13:31-32
Now ( νυν ). Now at last, the crisis has come with a sense of deliverance from the presence of Judas and of surrender to the Father's will (Westcott).Is glorified ( εδοξασθη ). First aorist passive of δοξαζω, consummation of glory in death both for the Son and the Father. For this verb in this sense see already 7:39; 12:16 and later 17:3. Four times here in verses 31f.
In himself ( εν αυτω ). Reflexive pronoun. God is the source of the glory (17:5) and is the glory succeeding the Cross (the glory with the Father in heaven).
And straightway ( κα ευθυς ). No postponement now. First and quickly the Cross, then the Ascension.
