John 17 is the seventeenth chapter of the Gospel of John in the New Testament of the Christian Bible. It portrays a prayer of Jesus Christ addressed to his Father, placed in context immediately before his betrayal and crucifixion, the events which the gospel often refers to as his glorification.[1] Lutheran writer David Chytraeus entitled Jesus' words "the prayer of the high priest".[2] Methodist theologian Joseph Benson calls this prayer "Our Lord’s Intercessory Prayer", because "it is considered as a pattern of the intercession he is now making in heaven for his people".[3] The New King James Version divides this chapter into three sections:
John 17:1–5: Jesus Prays for Himself
John 17:6–19: Jesus Prays for His Disciples
John 17:20–26: Jesus Prays for All Believers.[4]
The book containing this chapter is anonymous, but early Christian tradition uniformly affirmed that John composed this Gospel.[5]
