John 16:16-18

16In a little while you will see me no longer; again after a little while, you will see me.”

17Then some of his disciples said to one another, “What is the meaning of what he is saying, ‘In a little while you will not see me; again after a little while, you will see me,’ and, ‘because I am going to the Father’?”

18So they kept on repeating, “What is the meaning of what he says, ‘In a little while’? We do not understand what he is talking about.”
