John 16:5 Context
3And these things will they doe vnto you, because they haue not knowen the Father, nor me. 4But these things haue I told you, that when the time shall come, ye may remember that I told you of them. And these things I said not vnto you at the beginning, because I was with you. 5But now I goe my way to him that sent mee, and none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou? 6But because I haue saide these things vnto you, sorow hath filled your heart. 7Neuerthelesse; I tell you the trueth, it is expedient for you that I goe away: for if I goe not away, the Comforter will not come vnto you: but if I depart, I will send him vnto you.
