Context of John 14:20

18“I will not leave you as orphans; I am coming to you. 19In a little while the world will no longer see me, but you will see me. Because I live, you will live too. On that day you will know that I am in my Father, you are in me, and I am in you. 21The one who has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. And the one who loves me will be loved by my Father. I also will love him and will reveal myself to him.” 22Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it you’re going to reveal yourself to us and not to the world?”
