Yohanes 13:30-31

13:30 Judas ¹  took the piece of bread and went out immediately. (Now it was night.) ² 

The Prediction of Peter’s Denial

13:31 When ³  Judas ⁴  had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in him.

[13:30]  ¹ tn Grk “That one”; the referent (Judas) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[13:30]  ² sn Now it was night is a parenthetical note by the author. The comment is more than just a time indicator, however. With the departure of Judas to set in motion the betrayal, arrest, trials, crucifixion, and death of Jesus, daytime is over and night has come (see John 9:5; 11:9-10; 12:35-36). Judas had become one of those who walked by night and stumbled, because the light was not in him (11:10).

[13:31]  ³ tn Grk “Then when.”

[13:31]  ⁴ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Judas) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
