How do you 'see' Jesus? In John 12, Some Greeks who were looking for Jesus stand out against the gospel narrative as unusual in the political landscape of the time.

As these Greeks request to see Jesus, his response is that in order to rightly see him, you have to see his death, burial, and resurrection.
