A.T. Robertson Commentary
"And the glory which thou hast given me I have given unto them; that they may be one, even as we [are] one;" — John 17:22 (ASV)
And the glory (καγω την δοξαν). Literally, "And I the glory," with emphasis on "I." It is the glory of the Incarnate Word (Bernard), cf. 1:14; 2:11, not the glory of the Eternal Word mentioned in 17:24. Bengel says: Quanta majestas Christianorum! Then verse 22 repeats the unity prayed for in verse 21.
