John Chapter 12

John 12

Moriah/maria expressed Agape-Love by giving her all, to anoint/oil the body of Jesus in the house of a Pharisee, called Simon (son of a leper) (ref: Lk 7:40). 

(note: the name Moriah maria (H4179) means female-Teacher of the disobedient) 

1. Then, six days prior to Passover, Jesus came into Bethany, where Lazarus, whom Jesus raised up out of the dead, was. 

2. Then, a supper was made for Him there, and Martha served. Lazarus also was one of those sitting at the table together with Him. (inside the house of a pharisee, Simon, Lk 7:40) 

3. Then, a loyal/faithful Moriah/mariam, take a liter of a valuable/very costly myrrh-perfumed spikenard ointment, to oil the feet of Jesus, and wipe His feet by her hair; and the house was fully filled with the scent from the myrrh-perfume.

4. Judah Iscariote (inhabitants of Keriote), one of His disciples, who will betray/surrender Him, say, howbeit, 

5. —by what reason should this myrrh perfume not be sold for three hundred denarii (ten asses/pound), and be given to the poor?

6. However, he said this, not that he cares about the poor, but, he had been a thief, and hold the purse/bag, that bear the things cast. 

(that was also John's opinion) 

7. Jesus then says, leave her alone: at least she preserved the same body unto the day of My interment:

8. For, you will have beggars always among yourselves; but you will not have Me always.

There is a Plot to even kill Lazarus because some Jews had left Judaism (Religion established by Moses) because of him.

9. Much crowd from the Jews therefore know that He is there; and come, not because of Jesus only, but, at least to even see Lazarus, whom He had raised out of the dead.

10. So, the Chief-priests took counsel, at least, to kill Lazarus,

11. Because many of the Jews, through him, will be led to have Faith unto Jesus.

Royal entry to Jerusalem 

12. Upon the morning of the next day, much crowd, who heard that Jesus is coming into Jerusalem, come unto the feast,

13. they take branches of PHOENIX/palm leaves (symbol of immortality/renewal), and proceeded forth to meet Him and cry out; Hoshian-na (oh save now)! Blessed is the One coming in the NAME (Authority) of the SUPREME Lord; oh, the King of Israel! (Ps 118:26)

14. So, Jesus found a young ass and sat upon it, just as it is written:

15. daughter of Zion, fear not; behold your King is coming, sitting upon a foal of donkey. (Zach 9:9)

16. His disciples did not at first know, that, this thing is for Jesus, but when they have done these things to glorify Him, then, they remembered, these things had been written upon Him.

17. Therefore, the multitude who were with Him, when Lazarus was called out of the grave, and raised up from the dead testified of Him. 

18. And because of this, the crowd who heard of this miracle done by Him, go to meet Him. 

19. Then, the Pharisees said towards themselves, don't you see that we benefit/gain nothing? Behold, the world has gone behind Him. 

The Visitation of people of heathen-Nations to Jesus, called for attention 

20. There were certain Greeks (Hellen) also, out of those who go up, at least to worship in the feast;

21. Then, the same people approached Philip, who is from Bethsaida (fishing house) of Galilee (1:44), and ask him saying, we want to see the Lord Jesus.

22. Philip goes to tell Andrew; and Philip and Andrew come to tell Jesus.

23. So, Jesus answers them and say, the hour has come to at least glorify the Son by men.

24. So be it, Amen; I tell you, except a grain of wheat fall into the earth, and die, it will stay alone; but in case it died, it will bears plenteous fruits.

25. Those who like (phileo) their souls, will lose it, and those who love their souls less, in this world, will preserve it unto eternal Life. 

26. In case any person will follow Me, he will serve; and where I am, My servant also will be there. And in case, any person serve Me, My FATHER will honor him.

Jesus, the Emperor and the First in Rank in the worldis about to be ejected out. 

27. And He says,  how much My Soul is agitated now? FATHER save Me from this hour. But, I have come unto this hour, because of this. 

28. FATHER, YOUR Name will be glorified. Then, a voice came out of heaven: even IT shall be glorified and will be esteemed glorious again. 

29. Then, the crowd who stand and hear, says, thunder is generated. Others say, Angel preaches to Him.

30. Jesus answers and say, this voice is generated, not because of Me, but because of you.

31. Now, there will be a judgment by a  ruler of this world, and now will this Man be ejected outside the word. 

32. In case, I am exalted, even I will draw all people out of the earth towards Myself.

33. But, He said this, signifying what sort of death, He will die of.

Walk in Jesus; the Light/Manifester of mankind 

34. Then, a man out from the crowd answers Him; we have heard of the law, that Christ will abide unto ages, how will you say that, the Son must be exalted by men? Who is the Son?

35. Jesus then tells them, in a little space of time, will the Light still be among you. Walk around as those who have Light, at least for darkness not to eagerly seize you. For, those who walk in the darkness, are not aware of where they are going.

36. As you have the Light, have Faith unto the Light, at least, to become the sons of the Light. Jesus preached these things, and went to hide away from them.

Rhetoric around the mind of unbelievers according to prophet Isaiah.

37. Moreover, so vast are the Miracles He has done in their presence, but they did not have Faith unto Him.

38. At least, the words of Prophet Isaiah is fulfilled, who said, who will believe our report/things heard from the SUPREME Lord? And Who will reveal the arm of the SUPREME Lord ? (Is 53:1)

39. Because they cannot believe this thing, Isaiah said again,

40. Their eyes are blinded and their hearts are porous/clogged, not to at least see by their eyes and to exercise mind by their heart, and turn back, and be cured. (Is 6:10)

41. Isaiah said this, because he was aware of His Glory and preached concerning Him.

Walk in the Light and not in darkness 

42. Though, at the same time indeed, even many out of the Rulers happened to have faith unto Him, but because of the Pharisees, they did not profess/acknowledge Him, at least, not to be excommunicated/put out of synagogue.

43. No doubt, they loved the glory of men, more than the glory of God.

44. So, Jesus screamed and said, those who believe unto Me, had not believed unto Me, BUT unto The ONE Who dispatch Me (on a mission);

45. and those who behold (theoreo) Me (as spectators), are beholding (as spectators) the ONE WHO dispatch Me (on a mission). 

(note: vs 45 is never controversial. Some came to look at him as in a theatre while serious ones came to discern him) 

46. I have come as the Light into the world, at least all men, who have Faith unto Me, will not abide in darkness.

47. And in case any person hear My utterances (rhematon), and never keep them, I will not judge him, for, I have not come to at least judge the world, but at least to save the world.

48. Those who disesteem Me and do not receive My utterances (rhema), will have themselves to be judged: the words (logos) that I have preached, the same will judge them in the last day.

49. For, I have not preached out of Myself, but the FATHER HIMSELF WHO dispatched Me, gives Me the injunction (mandate) on what I should say, and what I should preach.

50. And I am aware that HIS injunction is of Eternal Life. Therefore, what I have preached is just as the FATHER has spoken to Me and I have preached likewise.
