The Cross: A Crisis, Not a Defeat
Jesus redefines his impending death not as a defeat, but as the world's 'judgment' or 'crisis.' Commentators explain this isn't the final judgment day, but the decisive turning point where the conflict between God and Satan is settled. The cross, seemingly a moment of weakness, is actually the ultimate display of God's power and the establishment of His kingdom.
