Then [some] of His disciples said among themselves, "What is this that He says to us, 'A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me'; and, 'because I go to the Father'?" |
18
|
They said therefore, "What is this that He says, 'A little while'? We do not know what He is saying." |
19
|

27
|
"for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and have believed that I came forth from God. |
28
|
"I came forth from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I leave the world and go to the Father." |
29
|
His disciples said to Him, "See, now You are speaking plainly, and using no figure of speech! |
30
|
"Now we are sure that You know all things, and have no need that anyone should question You. By this we believe that You came forth from God." |
