 22The Lord possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old.

 24When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water.
 25Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:
 26While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world.
 27When he prepared the heavens, I was there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth:
 28When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep:
 29When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:
 30Then I was by him, as one brought up with him: and I was daily his delight, rejoicing always before him;
 31Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men. (Prov. 8:21‑31)
• He speaks here of given glory. It is this which is so precious to us, because He has acquired it by His sufferings for us, and yet it is what was perfectly due to Him―the just reward for having, in them, perfectly glorified the Father. (“John 17” by J.N. Darby)
• The closing section of our Lord’s words is quite distinct in its character, and yet more intimate, as is marked by His use of θέλω, “I will” (or “desire”), for the first and only time throughout His prayer. (“John 17” by W. Kelly)
• It is no question of display in glory before the world, even though in the closest association with Him; it is to be with Himself where no stranger can (I do not say merely intermeddle with the joy, but) look on Him or them, in the hidden scene which Divine love forms for is deepest satisfaction. (“John 17” by W. Kelly)
• It is a joy for us alone, wholly outside and above the world, and given because the Father loved Him before its foundation. None but the Eternal could be thus glorified, but it is the secret glory which none but His own are permitted to contemplate, “blest answer to reproach and shame,” not the public glory in which every eye shall see Him. (“John 17” by W. Kelly)
