Context of John 16:14

12“I have many more things to say to you, but you cannot bear [to hear] them now. 13But when He, the Spirit of Truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth [full and complete truth]. For He will not speak on His own initiative, but He will speak whatever He hears [from the Father—the message regarding the Son], and He will disclose to you what is to come [in the future]. He will glorify and honor Me, because He (the Holy Spirit) will take from what is Mine and will disclose it to you. 15All things that the Father has are Mine. Because of this I said that He [the Spirit] will take from what is Mine and will reveal it to you. 16“A little while, and you will no longer see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me.”

• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 7-15Verses 7-15 Christ's departure was necessary to the Comforter's coming. Sending the Spirit was to be the fruit of Christ's death, which was his going away. His bodily presence could be only in one place at one time, but his Spirit is every where, in all places, at all times, wherever two or three are gathered together in his name.
