John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 14. If ye shall ask anything , etc.] These words are much, the same with the former, and have been thought, by some, to have crept into the text from the margin; though they seem rather to be repeated by Christ, the more to strengthen and confirm the faith of his disciples in this matter; that whatsoever they asked in my name , either calling upon it, he being equally the object of prayer with the Father, or making mention of it, pleading the merits of his blood, righteousness, and sacrifice; whatever was according to the will of God, was for his glory, and their real good, he would do it for them, as well when absent from them, as present with them.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 12-17 - Whatever we ask in Christ's name, that shall be for our good, an suitable to our state, he shall give it to us. To ask in Christ's name is to plead his merit and intercession, and to depend upon that plea The gift of the Spirit is a fruit of Christ's mediation, bought by his merit, and received by his intercession. The word used here, signifie an advocate, counsellor, monitor, and comforter. He would abide with the disciples to the end of time; his gifts and graces would encourag their hearts. The expressions used here and elsewhere, plainly denote person, and the office itself includes all the Divine perfections. The gift of the Holy Ghost is bestowed upon the disciples of Christ, an not on the world. This is the favour God bears to his chosen. As the source of holiness and happiness, the Holy Spirit will abide with ever believer for ever.
