Jesus is saying – before I go to the Greeks – before I go to the Gentiles – I am going to the cross. I have to die. The hour is approaching. The road My Father has willed me to walk is the road of personal sacrifice. If I came to you Greeks now, that would be a short term policy.
These are Christ’s last words to the public, and in verse 26 it is an ultimatum.
The hour had come. God’s clock is important. God’s timing is vital. It was nearing the end of Jesus’ life, and this coming hour was to become the pivotal point of all human affairs.
It is good to be sufficiently sensitive enough to God to know that God’s Hour has come for you to do his will.
