What does this mean?
The disciples had come to the conviction that Jesus was God’s messenger and that all He taught was God’s truth.
It is one thing to be given something, and another thing to accept it.
Jesus gave them the words of His Father, and the disciples accepted.
LAMBANO is the Greek word.
A better meaning of this might be acquired it or obtained possession of it.
When they did this, they disputed the words of those who had claims against Jesus.
“Certainty” comes from the Greek word ALETHOS and it means really, surely.
It is the same word as TRULY in
Matthew 1
I Thessalonians
“Believed” means truly committed to.

Cross reference:
Everything the Son has belongs to the Father.
This is restated from

Bearing much fruit
Believing in Him

He highlights His passion in coming to the Father.
How will His departure come?
His death
His resurrection
His ascension

Why do you think He does this?
HOLY FATHER helps to show the view of God but also the intimacy we can share with Him.
IN YOUR NAME shows the manifestation of God’s character and His might.
Jesus prays that the disciples would be separated from the world of dangers as they continue to live among hostile neighbors.
He asks that they would become one as He and the Father are one.
Why is this unity so important?
Unity among the disciples is necessary for the sake of the mission.
Jesus kept the disciples safe by His presence.
He guided them and prevented them from wandering into danger.
He kept them from wandering away.
He had them under His eye and care.
He gave them sound instruction, performed miracles before their eyes.
Jesus asks His Father to keep them safe in His name.
What does this imply?
They are weak and cannot make it on their own.
They are valuable and worth God keeping them in His hands.
They are saved as righteous and are reserved for bliss.
They have been cared for by the Lord and like the Good Shepherd, He longs for them to remain safe.
“None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction…” Who does this refer to?
Some translations call this the “son of perdition.”
This is a quote from
Psalm
The word destruction comes from the Greek word APOLEIA.
In the New Testament, it always refers to eternal destruction:
Romans
Philippians 1:28
2 Thessalonians
1 Timothy
One translation says BE DELIGHTED.
This is the second time Jesus spoke of His Joy.
The first time was in :
Do you think this was spoken/prayed in a way the disciples could hear?
He did this another time in :
We learn later that the disciples did indeed experience joy.
Jesus wants His disciples to experience His joy and the Father’s joy.
This joy was intended for the eaves-dropping disciples who were listening to His prayer and for those that would read of it centuries later.
By the way, joy is the mark of the kingdom in Old Testament prophecy.
Isaiah
Paul spoke of this joy also:
Philippians
Philippians
John 17:15
Jesus wants them to be able to withstand and overcome the conflict that the world gives.
Jesus would be removed, but His followers would stay.
There are other Biblical examples of this:
Daniel in Babylon ()
Caesar’s household ()
Christians should not take themselves out of the world but remain in meaningful contact with it, trusting in God’s protection as we witness for Him.
