This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
If a man love me (ean tis agapāi me). Condition of third class with ean and present active subjunctive, “if one keep on loving me.” That is key to the spiritual manifestation (emphanizō).
We will come (eleusometha). Future middle of erchomai and first person plural (the Father and I), not at the judgment, but here and now.
And make our abode with him (kai monēn par' autōi poiēsometha). See Joh 14:2 for the word monē (dwelling, abiding place). If the Holy Spirit “abides” (menei, Joh 14:17) in you, that heart becomes a temple (naos) of the Holy Spirit (1Co 3:16.), and so a fit dwelling place for the Father and the Son, a glorious and uplifting reality.
