This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Joh 14:22. Οὐκ ὁ Ἰσκαριώτης, not Iscariot) He distinguishes the godly Judas, not by his own surname, but by setting aside (by the negation of) the surname of the other Judas; marking at the same time the traitor as present again after his negotiation with the Lord’s adversaries, but as alien to such a question.-τί γέγονεν, what hath happened that? [“How is it that?”]) The godly Judas seems to have supposed that something has happened, because of which the world would be deprived of that revelation of Jesus: but through modesty he had no remembrance of his own peculiar privilege above the world.-ἡμῖν, unto us) who love Thee.-οὐχὶ τῷ κόσμῳ, not to the world) Joh 14:17; Joh 14:19. So the opinion of a worldly kingdom, generally entertained by the disciples, is cut off.
