Bible Commentary

John 12:41

Isaiah saw the glory of the Lord in his famous vision (Isaiah 6). John tells us that what Isaiah saw was the glory of Jesus — the pre-existent, eternal Son of God.

Memory phrase: Isaiah saw Jesus' glory.

Talk about it: What does it mean that Isaiah saw Jesus' glory long before Jesus was born?

Prayer: Lord Jesus, I worship Your eternal glory.
