Study note
Setting — Jesus speaks to His remaining disciples immediately after Judas departs into the night.
The words — νῦν (nun) = Now and ἐδοξάσθη (edoxasthē) = has been glorified mark a decisive shift in the narrative.
The thread — The mutual glorification of God and the Son recurs in John 13:32 and John 14:13.
Why it lands — The text states that Judas's departure triggers Jesus's declaration of glorification, requiring the reader to recognize the crucifixion as the mechanism of divine glory rather than a defeat.
