This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Even so, Father; for so it seemed good - the emphatic and chosen term for expressing any object of divine complacency; whether Christ Himself (see on Mat 3:17), or God’s gracious eternal arrangements (see on Phi 2:13).
in thy sight - This is just a sublime echo of the foregoing words; as if Jesus, when He uttered them, had paused to reflect on it, and as if the glory of it - not so much in the light of its own reasonableness as of God’s absolute will that so it should be - had filled His soul.
