Bible Comments

Not any new articles of doctrine or faith, for, 1 Thessalonians 15:15, he had told them that he had made known unto them all things which he had heard of the Father of that nature; but some things (probably) which concerned them with reference to their office as apostles, the constitution, state, and government of the church: but, saith he, ye cannot bear them now; in regard of their passion, or rather of their more imperfect state.

John 16:12

12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now.
