Jump to Previous Prepare Ready ReceiveJump to Next Prepare Ready ReceiveJohn 14 1. Jesus comforts his disciples with the hope of heaven;5. professes himself the way, the truth, and the life, and one with the Father; 13. assures their prayers to be effectual; 15. requires obedience; 16. promises the Comforter; 27. and leaves his peace with them. And if I go This phrase begins with a conditional "if," which in the Greek is "ἐὰν" (ean), suggesting a certainty rather than a mere possibility. Jesus is speaking to His disciples about His impending departure, which is His crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension. The "go" refers to His journey to the cross and ultimately to heaven. Historically, this was a time of great confusion and fear for the disciples, as they struggled to understand the necessity of Jesus' departure. and prepare a place for you I will come again and receive you to Myself that where I am, you may be also I will come again, and receive you unto myself.--This clause has been variously explained of the resurrection; of the death of individual disciples; of the spiritual presence of our Lord in the Church; of the coming again of the Lord in the Parousia of the last day, when all who believe in Him shall be received unto Himself. The difficulty has arisen from taking the words "I will come again," as necessarily referring to the same time as those which follow--"I will receive you unto Myself," whereas they are in the present tense, and should be literally rendered, I am coming again. They refer rather, as the same words refer when used in John 14:18, to His constant spiritual presence in their midst; whereas the reception of them to Himself is to be understood of the complete union which will accompany that spiritual presence; a union which will be commenced in this life, advanced by the death of individuals, and completed in the final coming again.
