John14:31

31 But that the world may know that I love the Father: and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do ; Arise, let us go hence .

I die not for my own sin; but being found in fashion as a man, I humbled my self, and became obedient unto the death, even the death of the Cross (as Phil. 2.8.) to let the World know, that I love the Father, and am obedient to him, doing even so as he hath commanded me.

Arise from Supper, (after which they were wont sometimes to lengthen our discourse) the Supper in Bethany as some think: but to me it seems more probable, (as I said before) to be the Passover Supper, and the Lords Supper which immediately followed that; and let us go hence, out of the guest chamber (where the Passover was to be administred). So as it is most probable, that the discourses in the two next Chapters were as they went along in the way to Mount Olivet. In this discourse our Saviour hath most applied himself to relieve his Disciples upon their disturbance, for their want of our Saviours bodily presence.
