This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
32. εἰ ὁ θ. ἐδοξ. ἐν αὐτῷ. These words are wanting in אBC1DLX; the repetition might account for their being omitted, but they spoil the marked balance and rhythm of the clauses in Joh 13:31-32.
καὶ ὁ θ. δοξάσει. And God shall glorify Him, with the glory which He had with the Father before the world was. Hence the future. The glory of completing the work of redemption is already present; that of returning to the Father will straightway follow. Ἐν αὐτῷ means ‘in God:’ as God is glorified in the Messianic work of the Son, so the Son shall be glorified in the eternal blessedness of the Father. Comp. Joh 17:4-5; Php 2:9.
