JOHN 12:20 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast:”
Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the festival — the introduction of Greek worshippers (hoi Hellēnes, likely Greek-speaking Jews or God-fearers from the diaspora who came to worship at Passover) marks a significant threshold. Their presence signals that Jesus' ministry is approaching its universalizing moment, moving beyond the Jewish-only focus.
