Verse 17

17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

Ver. 17. For he dwelleth with you ] Next to the love of Christ in dwelling in our nature, we may wonder at the love of the Holy Ghost, that will dwell in the dark dog-hole of our defiled souls; and be there as those two golden pipes, Zechariah 4:12 , through which the two olive branches empty out of themselves the golden oils of all precious graces; which are, therehence, called "the fruits of the Spirit," Galatians 5:22 ; "yea, the Spirit," John 14:17 . God also in giving us his Spirit, is said to give us all good things, Matthew 7:11 ; cf. Luke 11:13 .
