Confused & Unbelieving - John 12:34-41

Jesus had just said something shocking to His audience. He said that He would be lifted up in death, and earlier He had said that His hour had come and that the “Son of Man” would be glorified. And, now the crowd is confused! How can the Son of Man be glorified and live forever if the Son of Man is going to be lifted up in death?! This lack of nuanced understanding of the Old Testament prophecies causes the crowd to reject Jesus, in spite of all the clear proof that He was indeed the Messiah.
