Commentary on John 12:28
Jesus resolves His struggle: 'Father, glorify thy name,' prioritizing God's glory over personal comfort. The Father's audible response affirms both past glorification (through Jesus' ministry) and future glorification (through the cross). This divine voice publicly authenticates Jesus' mission at this crucial moment. The Father's 'I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again' spans Christ's entire ministry—past signs and future sacrifice both glorify God. The audible voice serves the crowd (v. 30), not Jesus, providing testimony to His divine sonship.
