John 17:24

22 And the ^aglory which You gave Me I have given them, ^bthat they may be one just as We are one:

23 I in them, and You in Me; ^athat they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.

24 ^a“Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; ^bfor You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

25 O righteous Father! ^aThe world has not known You, but ^bI have known You; and ^cthese have known that You sent Me.

26 ^aAnd I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love ^bwith which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”

John 17:24

That they may behold my glory - That they may enjoy eternal felicity with me in thy kingdom. So the word is used, John 3:3; Matthew 5:8. The design of Christ is, that all who believe should love and obey, persevere unto the end, and be eternally united to himself, and the ever blessed God, in the kingdom of glory.
