"Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter His glory?" - Luke 24:26
High renown or honor won by notable achievement.
Magnificence or great beauty.
I would say saving the world from sin and allowing every person to have a relationship with God is notable. And as far as honor, I'm just taking a stab here, but I bet You are the most honored person in heaven. But, I also feel like as you were walking, the magnificence and beauty could be felt and possibly even seen. This version of yourself was the best version.
However, when it says "His glory" I'm going with A. The suffering, all the things You went through, the glory comes in the honor you received from The Father. That really was the goal, wasn't it? Yes, You loved us. Yes, You wanted what was best for us. But, the clincher was that You wanted to please The Father.
I'm not there yet.
