Two truths are presented here: War amongst the nations, but the larger war is conflict between man and God. The book of Genesis shows this starting in the third chapter and continues all the way through to Revelation. Jesus here is troubled, because He knows he will soon die a horrible death, but it will also mean that, “Now is the judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be cast out.” The good will be, “I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
