John 14:3 Meaning and Commentary

John 14:3

And if I go and prepare a place for you
Seeing I am going to prepare, and will prepare a place for you, of the truth of which you may be fully assured:

I will come again;
either by death or in person a second time, here on earth:

and receive you unto myself;
I will take you up with me to heaven; I will receive you into glory;

that where I am there you may be also:
and behold my glory, and be for ever with me, and never part more.

John 14:3 In-Context

1 Let not your heart be troubled: have faith in God and have faith in me.

2 In my Father's house are rooms enough; if it was not so, would I have said that I am going to make ready a place for you?

3 And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come back again and will take you to be with me, so that you may be where I am.

4 And you all have knowledge of where I am going, and of the way to it.

5 Thomas said, Lord, we have no knowledge of where you are going; how may we have knowledge of the way?
