Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

See commentary on John 17:15-19.


John 17:19

_ _ And for their sakes I sanctify — consecrate.

_ _ myself that they also might — may.

_ _ be sanctified — consecrated. The only difference between the application of the same term to Christ and the disciples is, as applied to Christ, that it means only to “consecrate”; whereas, in application to the disciples, it means to consecrate with the additional idea of previous sanctification, since nothing but what is holy can be presented as an offering. The whole self-sacrificing work of the disciples appears here as a mere result of the offering of Christ [Olshausen].

_ _ through — in.

_ _ the truth — Though the article is wanting in the original here, we are not to translate, as in the Margin,truly sanctified”; for the reference seems plainly to be “the truth” mentioned in John 17:17. (See on John 17:17).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on John 17:17-19.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

John 17:19

I sanctify myself — I devote myself as a victim, to be sacrificed.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

John 17:19

And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the (g) truth.

(g) The true and substantial sanctification of Christ is contrasted with the outward purifyings of the law.
