        Hmmm, tricky one! The question on glorification is reasonable
        from Jo7:39 which you quote, but then what do we make of NUN
        EDOXASQH in 13:31? ...perhaps this is one of those NUN which
        applies to something very nearly NUN but not "now" as we'd use
        it in English? If so Jo7:39 and 13:31 have the death and/or the
        resurrection, not the ascension, in mind by "glorification".
        Regards
        Steven

     PS One could cheat and work backwards from the event you're looking
        for (in John20:22) to this answer anyway :-)
