Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

John 12:23-26

_ _ Jesus answered them, The hour is come that the Son of man should be glorified — that is, They would see Jesus, would they? Yet a little moment, and they shall see Him so as now they dream not of. The middle wall of partition that keeps them out from the commonwealth of Israel is on the eve of breaking down, “and I, if I be lifted up from the earth, shall draw all men unto Me”; I see them “flying as a cloud, and as doves to their cotes” — a glorious event that will be for the Son of man, by which this is to be brought about. It is His death He thus sublimely and delicately alluded to. Lost in the scenes of triumph which this desire of the Greeks to see Him called up before His view, He gives no direct answer to their petition for an interview, but sees the cross which was to bring them gilded with glory.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on John 12:20-26.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

John 12:23

The hour is come that the Son of man should be glorified — With the Father and in the sight of every creature. But he must suffer first.
