Summary: | Nũν ⋯δοξ⋯σθη ⋯ Υἱòς τοũ ⋯νθρώπου, κα⋯ ⋯ Θεòς ⋯δοξ⋯σθη ⋯ν αὐτῷ. ‘Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in him’ (John xiii.31). Much has been written on the glory and the glorification of Christ in the Fourth Gospel, but grammars, dictionaries, commentaries, and monographs are strangely inadequate, or even silent, on the kindred theme of the glory of God. What does the Johannine Jesus mean when he says that God is glorified? I raise this question, slight as it appears at first glance to be, partly because of its intrinsic importance to the theology of the Gospel, but also because it cannot be answered at all without providing a most elaborate paradigm for the application of linguistic principles to New Testament exegesis. |
