Jesus prays to his Father.As You sent Me into the world This phrase begins with a profound declaration of mission and purpose. The Greek word for "sent" is "ἀπέστειλας" (apesteilas), which is derived from "ἀποστέλλω" (apostellō), meaning to send forth with a specific purpose or commission. This word is often used in the New Testament to describe the sending of messengers or apostles. In this context, it emphasizes the divine mission of Jesus, who was sent by the Father into the world. The "world" (κόσμον, kosmon) here refers to the fallen, sinful human society that is in need of redemption. Historically, this reflects the incarnation of Christ, who entered human history to fulfill God's redemptive plan. This sending is not just a physical movement but a divine commissioning with authority and purpose. I have also sent them into the world So have I also sent them into the world.--Better, I also sent. Comp. Notes on Matthew 10:5; Luke 6:13. In the very word "Apostles" their mission was contained; but the thought here comprehends the immediate future of their wider mission. (Comp. Note on John 20:21.) Verse 18. - As thou didst send me into the world from the glory which I had with thee before the world was - a primal fact in the earthly consciousness of the Lord Christ, and one on which he repeatedly laid emphasis (John 10:36; John 17:8) - even so I sent them into the world; i.e. from that higher sphere of thought above the world to which I had called them. "They are not of the world," but I sent them from the unworldly home and from the high place of my intimate friendship, from the ground of elevated sympathy with myself, into the world, with my message and the power to claim obedience. Christ gave this apostolic commission near the commencement of his ministry (see Matthew 10:5, etc., and Mark 3:14, Ἵνα ω΅σι μετ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἵνα ἀποστέλλῃ αὐτοὺς κηρύσσειν), and that first act, the type of the whole apostolic commission, which was finally confirmed (Matthew 28:19, 20; John 20:21, 22), is here described in the timeless force of the aorist, so that the word embraces the entire ministerial function of all who believe in the mission of the Son.Parallel Commentaries ...
