SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:33
Y esto decía señalando de qué muerte había de morir.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 33. This he said , etc.] These are the words of the evangelist, interpreting the design of Christ in the above words, thereby signifying what death he should die ; the phrase of being lifted up from the earth, not only signified his death, but the kind, or manner of it, that it should be by crucifixion; a person crucified being stretched forth upon a cross, and that erected, was lifted up between earth and heaven.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 27-33 - The sin of our souls was the troubled of Christ's soul, when he undertook to redeem and save us, and to make his soul an offering for our sin. Christ was willing to suffer, yet prayed to be saved from suffering. Prayer against trouble may well agree with patience unde it, and submission to the will of God in it. Our Lord Jesus undertoo to satisfy God's injured honour, and he did it by humbling himself. The voice of the Father from heaven, which had declared him to be his beloved Son, at his baptism, and when he was transfigured, was hear proclaiming that He had both glorified his name, and would glorify it Christ, reconciling the world to God by the merit of his death, brok the power of death, and cast out Satan as a destroyer. Christ, bringin the world to God by the doctrine of his cross, broke the power of sin and cast out Satan as a deceiver. The soul that was at a distance from Christ, is brought to love him and trust him. Jesus was now going to heaven, and he would draw men's hearts to him thither. There is powe in the death of Christ to draw souls to him. We have heard from the gospel that which exalts free grace, and we have heard also that whic enjoins duty; we must from the heart embrace both, and not separat them.
