John 16:23 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Ye shall not question me about any thing — Which you do not now understand. You will not need to inquire of me; for you will know all things clearly. Whatsoever ye shall ask — Knowledge, love, or any thing else, he will give it — Our Lord here gives us a charte blanche. Believer, write down what thou wilt. He had said, John 14:13, I will do it, where the discourse was of glorifying the Father through the Son. Here, speaking of the love of the Father to believers, he saith, He will give it.

John 16:23

23 And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.
