Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.But ye see me — That is, ye shall certainly see me.Because I live, ye shall live also — Because I am the living One in my Divine nature, and shall rise again in my human nature, and live for ever in heaven: therefore ye shall live the life of faith and love on earth, and hereafter the life of glory. read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - John 14:23

Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.Jesus answered — Because ye love and obey me, and they do not, therefore I will reveal myself to you, and not to them.My Father will love him — The more any man loves and obeys, the more God will love him.And we will come to him, and make our abode with him — Which implies such a large manifestation of the Divine presence and love, that... read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - John 14:27

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.Peace I leave with you — Peace in general; peace with God and with your own consciences.My peace — In particular; that peace which I enjoy, and which I create, I give - At this instant.Not as the world giveth — Unsatisfying unsettled, transient; but filling the soul with constant, even tranquillity. Lord, evermore give us this peace! How serenely... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - John 14:1-31

§ 127. JESUS COMFORTS HIS DISCIPLES, John 14:1-31 . If, as some commentators suppose, the institution of the Lord’s Supper took place between John 13:35 and John 13:36, then the opening of this discourse has a degree of dependence on the warning just given to Peter. But if the institution of the Supper takes place at the close of the last chapter, the present chapter, at any rate, is a post-communion discourse. Though the variations of thought are so great, that we may, perhaps, properly... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - John 14:15

15. If… love… keep my commandments Preparatory to the reception of the Comforter, they were to come into full union with Christ by a love evinced by obedience. Hence this verse is not to be torn from its connection, but is to be viewed as conditional to the promise that follows. read more
