John 17:4
Douay-Rheims
I have glorified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.
John Chrysostom
He says, on the earth; for He had been glorified in heaven, both in respect of the glory of His own nature, and of the adoration of the Angels. The glory therefore here spoken of is not that which belongeth to His substance, but that which pertaineth to the worship of man: wherefore it follows, I have finished the work which Thou gavest Me to do.
