Bible Commentary

Chapter 17

Book / 42 / 755 chapter - 17
1025
Is it necessary to close our eyes in prayer?
On two occasions, when Jesus prayed to the Father, He lifted up His eyes to heaven (John 11:41; 17:1). On the other hand, when the tax collector prayed, he “would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven” (Luke 18:13).

The Bible does not specify whether our eyes are to be closed or open. Many close their eyes to avoid being distracted by things around them. 

And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. (John 17:3)

Eternal life is not knowing ‘about God’ but knowing the Father and His Son through a personal intimate relationship.

I have glorified You down here on the earth by completing the work that You gave Me to do. (John 17:4)

Remember, each time you finish a God given assignment you are glorifying God on this earth.

And now, Father, glorify Me along with Yourself and restore Me to such majesty and honor in Your presence as I had with You before the world existed. (John 17:5)

This verse clearly reveals the deity of Lord Jesus Christ

Could it be that Judas is in Hell?
While I was with them, I kept and preserved them in Your Name [[b]in the knowledge and worship of You]. Those You have given Me I guarded and protected, and not one of them has perished or is lost except the son of perdition [Judas Iscariot—the one who is now doomed to destruction, destined to be lost], that the Scripture might be fulfilled. (John 17:12 Amplified)

The above scripture gives credence to this fact. Also, Judas Iscariot, who, after betraying Jesus, committed suicide instead of repenting.
