Context of John 13:31

29Judas kept the bag of money on behalf of the group of disciples. So some of them thought that Jesus had asked Judas to buy some things. Maybe he should buy what they needed for the festival. Or maybe he should go and give some money to the poor people. 30Judas took the bread and he ate it. Then he went out immediately. By now it was night. When Judas had left, Jesus said, ‘Now people will see how great the Son of Man is. Because of him, they will also see how great God is. 32The Son will show how great God is. Then God will take the Son to himself and he will show how great the Son is. He will do that very soon. 33My children, I will be with you for only a short time now. You will look for me. But I tell you now what I told the Jews. You cannot go where I am now going.

"Now" the restraint is…Read the comment
