Commentary on John 10:17
Theological / DevotionalTherefore. Demonstrations of unselfish love such as Jesus’ voluntary offering of Himself to redeem mankind became added reasons for the Father’s love.
Take it again. The plan of salvation had been laid before the creation of the earth (Rev. 13:8; PP 63). The resurrection of Jesus was as much a part of the eternal plan as the crucifixion. Jesus would pass under the dominion of death for but a brief period (Ps. 16:10; cf. Acts 2:31, 32) and then come forth glorified to be the resurrection and the life (John 11:25) and to be man’s intercessor (Heb. 7:25). As a result of His humiliation the Father would highly exalt Him and give Him a name above every name (Phil. 2:9).
