Notes

John 14:3

Some scholars think that Jesus meant he would come and get his followers after the resurrection (14:18). Others think these words refer to the second coming of Jesus. For the disciples, the return of Jesus from the grave was more important (chapter 16).

John 14:1–31

Jesus provided answers to his disciples’ many spoken and unspoken concerns.
