Commentary on John 13:19

Theological / Devotional

Before it come. If Jesus had not told the disciples beforehand of the defection of Judas, they might have concluded that He had made a mistake in judgment when He permitted Judas to be one of the Twelve. The selection of Judas was an idea, not of Jesus, but of the disciples themselves (see on Mark 3:19). The fulfillment of prophecy is the stamp of validation upon the one uttering the prediction.

I am he. See ch. 8:24.
