The Gospel As Told by John

I noticed that Jesus kept saying: “it is not yet my hour”. I believe this repetition signifies the concept of destiny and fate that this story expresses. Jesus knew when he was going to be arrested and murdered because he had the knowledge of his own fate. In the beginning of the story when Jesus did not get arrested signified that it was not yet his hour to be killed. The last supper and Jesus’ speech at the last supper foreshadowed that his hour was coming and he prepared himself to be arrested and crucified.
