Charles Spurgeon Commentary John 14:18

"I will not leave you desolate: I come unto you." — John 14:18 (ASV)

I will not leave you comfortless:

Orphans.

I will come to you.

He does this by his Spirit, but still he means more than that. It is not a spiritual coming merely; it is a personal coming. I will come to you.

I will not leave you comfortless:

Or, "orphans," for that is the meaning of the original: I will not leave you orphans.
