Yochanan 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:

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.

2 In the Beis Avi there are many me’onot (dwelling places, permanent residences, homes, cf 14:23); if it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a makom (place) for you?

5 T’oma says to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Adoni, we do not have da’as of where you are going; how are we able to have da’as of HaDerech?
