He shall glorify me Both pronouns are emphatic; -Me shall that Spirit of truth glorify." Just as the Son glorifies the Father by revealing Him (John 1:18; John 17:4) both in word and work, so does the Spirit glorify the Son by revealing Him. In both cases to reveal is necessarily to glorify: the more the Truth is known, the more it is loved and adored.

for he shall receive … unto you Better, because He shall take of Mine and shall declare it to you. The verb rendered -receive" is the same as that rendered -take" in John 16:15, and -take" is better, as implying that the recipient is not wholly passive (lambanein, not dechesthai). Comp. John 10:17; John 12:48; John 20:22.
