John 12:28
Then came a voice from heaven, [saying], I have both glorified it.
At Gethsemane the angel came to strengthen him; here the Father's voice
speaks in approval. Three times the Father's voice was heard from the
sky: (1) when Christ was buried in Jordan, a type of his own burial
(Matthew 3:17); (2) when Moses and Elijah talked with him on the holy
mount about his death (Matthew 17:5); (3) when he had his struggle of
soul in view of death portrayed here, and triumphed.
Will glorify it again. God had glorified his name by the wonders
wrought by Jesus; he would glorify it by his resurrection, his
exaltation, the scenes of Pentecost, and the triumphs of the church.
