TSNTyndale Study Notes:

17:23 that the world will know: If the church lives in the Spirit, reflects God’s glory and love, and shows unity sustained by a shared knowledge of God, then its testimony will astonish the world.

TTNTyndale Theme Notes:

The World

One of the most frequently used words in John is “world” (Greek kosmos). In Greek-speaking Jewish thought, kosmos refers to the heavens and the earth as created by God (Gen 1; see also John 1:3, 10; 17:5, 24). John extends the concept to include the world of humanity (e.g., 1:10; 3:16).

Although it was created as good, the human world is hostile to God (1:10-11; 3:19-20; 12:37-41). It is controlled by a darkness that cannot comprehend the light and, in fact, resists the light (3:19). The world is dead and needs life (6:33, 51), yet it hates the one who can save it (7:7). The world is under the dominion of Satan (12:31), who will one day be judged.

God loves the world of humanity, despite its hostility and rebellion against him. Jesus died to take away the sin of the world (1:29; 3:16-17; 1 Jn 2:2). But God’s love for the world he created stands alongside his necessary judgment of the world (John 3:18-21, 36; 5:27-30; 12:47-48). Christ’s followers experience this same tension in their mission. We are called into the world to bring the message of God’s love, but we will experience conflict because the world will be hostile to our message (see 15:18-27; 17:13-26).

UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἐγὼ ἐν αὐτοῖς

I in them

This verse explains the statement “they would be one, just as we are one,” which is in the previous verse. If it would be more natural in your language, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “I mean that I am in them”

Note 2 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

ἵνα ὦσιν τετελειωμένοι εἰς ἕν

in_order_that ˱they˲_may_be /having_been/_perfected in one

Here, so that indicates that this is the second purpose for Jesus giving the glory he received from God to those who believe in him, which he stated in the previous verse. If this use of so that might confuse your readers, you could state this explicitly by repeating the idea from the previous verse and starting a new sentence. Alternate translation: “I have given them your glory so that they may be completely united”

Note 3 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

ἵνα γινώσκῃ ὁ κόσμος ὅτι σύ με ἀπέστειλας

in_order_that (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐγὼ ἐν αὐτοῖς καὶ σὺ ἐν ἐμοί ἵνα ὦσιν τετελειωμένοι εἰς ἕν καὶ γινώσκῃ ὁ κόσμος ὅτι σύ με ἀπέστειλας καὶ ἠγάπησας αὐτοὺς καθὼς ἐμὲ ἠγάπησας)

Here, so that could refer to: (1) the purpose for those who believe in Jesus being complete as one. Alternate translation: “for the purpose of the world knowing that you send me” (2) a third purpose for Jesus giving the glory he received from God to those who believe in him. This interpretation would require making a new sentence. Alternate translation: “I have also given them your glory so that the world may know that you sent me”

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

ὁ κόσμος

the world

See how you translated the world in 17:21.

Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

ἠγάπησας αὐτοὺς

˱you˲_loved them

Here, them refers to those who believe in Jesus, just like them does at the beginning of the verse. These believers are also the main subject of Jesus’ prayer in 17:20–26. If this would confuse your readers, you could express the meaning explicitly. Alternate translation: “you loved those who believe in me”
