Bible Commentary for John 13:29

Wesley's Notes for John 13:29


13:27 What thou doest, do quickly - This is not a permission, much less a command. It is only as if he had said, If thou art determined to do it, why dost thou delay? Hereby showing Judas, that he could not be hid, and expressing his own readiness to suffer.

13:28 None knew why he said this - Save John and Judas.

13:30 He went out - To the chief priests. But he returned afterward, and was with them when they ate the passover, #Mt 26:20|, though not at the Lord's Supper.

13:31 Jesus saith - Namely, the next day; on Thursday, in the morning. Here the scene, as it were, is opened, for the discourse which is continued in the following chapters. Now - While I speak this, the Son of man is glorified - Being fully entered into his glorious work of redemption. This evidently relates to the glory which belongs to his suffering in so holy and victorious a manner.
