Read John 3:14-15. The word translated as ‘lifted up’ can also be translated as ‘exalted’. Therefore, the physical act of lifting up is also a moment of exaltation. Imagine the crucifixion scene. How can this time of great degradation and personal suffering be a time of exaltation? The New Interpreters Bible states; “ Jesus crucifixion, resurrection and exaltation as one continuous act. The cross of humiliation is actually a cross of exaltation.”
