Context of John 16:14
12I have many more things to tell you. But you are not strong enough to know them now. 13But the Spirit will come. He is the one who shows people true things about God. When he comes, he will be a guide to you. He will help you to understand everything that is true. He will not speak on his own authority. He will tell you only what he hears from the Father. He will tell you about things that will happen after this time. He will take my message and he will tell it to you. In that way, he will give me honour. 15Everything that the Father has is mine. That is why I said, “The Spirit will take what is mine and then he will tell it to you.” ’ 16Jesus then said, ‘After a short time, you will not see me any more. But soon after that, you will see me again.’

Commentaries on John 16:14
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 14Shall glorify me - Shall honor me. The nature of his influence shall be such as to exalt my character and work in view of the mind. Shall receive of mine - Literally, “shall take of or from me.” He shall receive his commission and instructions as an ambassador from me, to do my will and complete my work. Shall show it - Shall announce or communicate it to you. This is always the work of the Spirit. All serious impressions produced by him lead to the Lord…Read the comment
- 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.
