Notes

John 16:11

The judgment of sinners had already started. This was because God had already judged the prince of this world, Satan (see 12:31). The world believed it was judging Jesus, but the opposite was true.

John 16:8–11

One of the Spirit’s roles is to convict the world. Convict is a legal term: The world had conducted its trial of Jesus, examining the evidence for his case (his signs and claims). Now the world would stand trial before the Spirit, and its guilt would be proven.
