We believe, then, that modern commentators have no solid reason for departing from what was undeniably the common view in the early Church, that Judas at the Last Supper did receive Holy Communion and was ordained priest. 31. Cum ergo exisset, dixit 31. When he therefore was gone Iesus: Nunc clarificatus est out, Jesus said: Now is the Filius hominis: et Deus son of man glorified, and God clarificatus est in eo. is glorified in him. 31. With this verse our Lord’s last discourses begin. They are divided into two portions by the change of place at the close of chapter xiv., the first portion containing what was spoken in the Supper Room (xiii. 31‐xiv. 31); the second, what was spoken just outside the Supper Room or along the way to Gethsemane or at some point on the way (xv., xvi.). In the first portion the leading ideas are that He and the Apostles are to be separated because He is about to ascend to the glory of the Father; still, that notwithstanding the separation, they shall not be orphans, but He and they shall be united. *When he therefore was gone out Jesus said.* The departure of Judas marked the beginning of the end, and Jesus at once turned to the eleven with words that prove His knowledge of what was about to happen, and His acceptance of the issue of the traitor’s work. *Now is the son of man glorified.* Judas had finally decided to betray Him, and He Himself had fully accepted what was to follow, so that His death, now so certain and so near, might be spoken of as already past: “is ... glorified.” For their consolation and encouragement He refers to His death as a glorification, as indeed it was, being a triumph over Satan and sin, and the prelude to victory over death itself. *And God is glorified in him.* God’s rigorous justice and boundless love for men were manifested by His sending His Divine Son to die for them, and hence God was glorified in the death of Christ. See Rom. iii. 25, 26; v. 8, 9. 32. Si Deus clarificatus est 32. If God be glorified in in eo, et Deus clarificabit him, God also will glorify him eum in semetipso: et continuo in himself: and immediately clarificabit eum. will he glorify him. 32. Many authorities omit the words: “If God be glorified in him.” *In himself.* The meaning seems to be: _with_ Himself, as in xvii. 5: “And now glorify thou me, O Father, with thyself.” *Immediately*, we refer to the time of the crucifixion. 33. Filioli, adhuc modicum 33. Little children, yet a vobiscum sum quaeretis me: et little while I am with you. sicut dixi Iudaeis: Quo ego You shall seek me, and as I vado, vos non potestis venire: said to the Jews: Whither I et vobis dico modo. go, you cannot come: so I say to you now.
