These things have I spoken unto you in proverbs: but the time comes, when I shall no more speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly of the Father.
All Commentaries on John 16:25 Go To John 16
John Chrysostom
AD 407
There shall be a time when you shall know all things clearly. He speaks of the time of the Resurrection. Then,
I shall tell you plainly of the Father.
(For He was with them, and talked with them forty days, being assembled with them, and speaking of the things concerning the kingdom of God Acts 1:3-4)— because now being in fear, you give no heed to My words; but then when you see Me risen again, and converse with Me, you will be able to learn all things plainly, for the Father Himself will love you, when your faith in Me has been made firm.
