dc.description.abstract	The paper attempts to explain, according to John 17:9-16, what the position of Jesus' disciples was after he has ascended to his Father. John pictures their position from both a physic-empirical and a spiritual perspective. In both cases Jesus asked the Father to protect them: first in order ἵνα ὦσιν ἓν, as in the case of Jesus and the Father, secondly to protect them ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ. Jesus' plea for the protection of his disciples was related to his desire that they should be successful in their mission to the world.	en
