In addition to being used to refer to when or how long something took place, the term "hour" is also used in several figurative ways:
* When the text says that the "hour had come" for Jesus to suffer and be put to death, this means that it was the appointed time for this to happen—the time that God had selected long ago.
* The term "hour" is also used to mean "at that moment" or "right then."
* The phrase "that hour" is also used to mean "at that moment" or "right then."
* When the text talks about the "hour" being late, this means that it was late in the day, when the sun would soon be setting.
