"These things have I spoken unto you, while [yet] abiding with you." — John 14:25 (ASV)
These things I have spoken to you Concerning his Father, and his Father's house, and the way to both; concerning his being in the Father, and the Father in him; concerning keeping his commandments, and the advantages and benefits following upon it:
being, says he, [yet] present with you; which is a strong intimation that in a little time he should not be present with them; and that while he was present with them, he was desirous of saying such things to them in a brief compendious manner, as they were able to bear; which might be of future use and instruction to them.
