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 hearts be troubled. Trust in God: trust in me also.

2 In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make ready a place for you.

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

4 And where I am going, you all know the way."

5 "Master," said Thomas, "we do not know where you are going. In what sense do we know the way?"
