This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Joh 17:16. Ἐκ, of) This sentiment is expressed also in Joh 17:14, but in a different order of the words (in Joh 17:14, ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου comes after οὐκ εἰσὶν, in Joh 17:16, before); which order (viz. that in Joh 17:14) simply shows the cause of the world’s hatred, and accords with the following verse, 15. But here in Joh 17:16, the ἐκ τοῦ κόσμου, of the world, being put twice in the first place, bears the emphasis of the sentence, in antithesis to ἁγίασον, sanctify, Joh 17:17. From Joh 17:16, Joh 17:17 is deduced; and from Joh 17:18, Joh 17:19.
