Commentary on John 13:27

Theological / Devotional

Satan. The name occurs only here in John. Elsewhere the apostle calls Satan the “devil” (chs. 8:44; 13:2). For the meaning of the name “Satan” see on Job 1:6; Zech. 3:1; Matt. 4:1.

Entered into him. That is, took complete possession of him. Heretofore there had still been opportunity for Judas to repent, but at this moment he passed the boundary line.

Do quickly. If Jesus, the true Passover Lamb, was to be slain on the day that the regular Passover lambs were slain (see Additional Notes on Matt. 26, Note 1), there was not much time left for Judas to commit his dastardly deed.
