João 14:31 NVT

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - John 14:1-99

John 14 THE WORD OF warning was at once followed by a word of exceeding grace. Jesus knew well that these disciples in spite of all their failures did really love Him, and the thought of His departure was a sore grief to them. Hence the words that open our chapter. It was beginning to dawn upon them that they were to lose His visible presence with them; that was the trouble that burdened their hearts. But then the invisible God had ever been to them real, as an Object of faith. Might not... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - John 14:27-31

The gift of peace: v. 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. v. 28. Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away and come again unto you. If ye loved Me, ye would rejoice because I said, I go unto the Father; for My Father is greater than I. v. 29. And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe. v. 30. Hereafter I will not... read more

John CHRIST FORESEEING HIS PASSION Joh_14:30 - Joh_14:31 . The summons to departure which closes these verses shows that we have now reached the end of that sacred hour in the upper room. In obedience to the summons, we have to fancy the little group leaving its safe shelter, as sailors might put out from behind a breakwater into a stormy sea. They pass from its seclusion and peace into the joyous stir of the crowded streets, filled with feast-keeping multitudes, on whom the full paschal... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - John 14:25-31

Christ’s Gift of Peace John 14:25-31 Our Lord gives the fourfold basis of His peace: (1) The vision of the Father. Throughout these wonderful chapters He seems able to speak of nothing else. If we lived in the thought and consciousness of God, our peace also would be as a river. Let us wrap that thought around us, as a man his overcoat on a stormy day. (2) Disentanglement from the world. We must stand clear of the ambitions of the world, of its fear and favor, of its craving for wealth and... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - John 14:1-31

There is no real break between the end of chapter 13 and beginning of chapter 14. Therefore continuing, while now including all the disciples, He charged them not to let their heart be troubled. He then answered Peter's original question by saying He was going to prepare a place for them. To Thomas' protest He answered that He Himself was "the way, the truth, and the life"; and to Philip's great exclamation, "Show us the Father, and it sufficeth us," He replied in words that need no comment,... read more

Peter Pett

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

Jesus’ Final Words To His Apostles (John 13:31 to John 17:26 ). This next section, from John 13:31 to John 17:26, can be seen as the equivalent of the dying words of Jesus. Words spoken on approaching death, and especially on a deathbed, were considered to be particularly potent. There are numerous examples of this in Scripture, like the blessings of Jacob to his sons in Genesis 47:29 to Genesis 49:33, Moses’ farewell words in Deuteronomy 33:0, the farewell of Joshua to the nation of Israel... read more

3). Closing Words of Comfort (John 14:27-31 ). Jesus ends these words of strengthening and encouraging with further assurances. They will enjoy His peace, and are to recognise that it is good that He is going away because it means a greater and a wider work, and will also result in His once again enjoying His Father’s presence in the fullness of His Being.. read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 14:30-31

“I will not speak with you much more. For the ruler of this world is coming, and he has nothing in me, but that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, so I do. Arise, let us go from here”. He now lets them know that He feels that He has said almost all that needs to be said for their encouragement, and that now He will prepare Himself for what He must face. He does not, He says, have much more to say. What He does have to say, however, will be important for... read more

Arthur Peake

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

John 14:1-Numbers : takes up the thoughts of the previous paragraph, not of the last verse. The thoughts of separation and treachery had led to perplexity, if not despair. Jesus bids them trust God and Himself. There is plenty of room in His Father’ s house ( cf. Genesis 24:23; Genesis 24:25). John 14:2 b may be interpreted in three ways: ( a) Even if not He would have found room for them. “ To you I would have said I go to prepare a place” : this suits the context, but is forced, ( b) “... read more
