18, Jn. 12: 20-26


The coming of the Greeks in search of Jesus, indicates symbolically the coming of the ‘hour’ of his suffering, death and resurrection, which will bring the Gentiles and the Jews together. Jesus sees himself like the grain that falls to the ground to give life- advocates his disciples to follow the same path of ‘self-emptying’.
