VERSE (18) - Mt 16:9-11 Lu 24:25 Heb 5:12

SEV Biblia, Chapter 16:18

Así que decían: ¿Qu es esto que dice: Un poquito? No entendemos lo que habla.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - John 16:18

Verse 18. What is this that he saith] They knew from what he had said that he was to die, but knew not what he meant by their seeing him again in a little time.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 18. They said therefore , etc.] One, and all of them; the inquiry became universal; what is this that he saith, a little while ? it seems as if this phrase was the most intricate and perplexing to them; for whatever conceptions they might have of not seeing, and seeing him again, as expressive of his going from them, and returning to them, yet had no notion at all what he should mean by a little while: and therefore add, we cannot tell what he saith : they knew his words, but not his meaning.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 16-22 - It is good to consider how near our seasons of grace are to an end that we may be quickened to improve them. But the sorrows of the disciples would soon be turned into joy; as those of a mother, at the sight of her infant. The Holy Spirit would be their Comforter, an neither men nor devils, neither sufferings in life nor in death, woul ever deprive them of their joy. Believers have joy or sorrow, accordin to their sight of Christ, and the tokens of his presence. Sorrow i coming on the ungodly, which nothing can lessen; the believer is a heir to joy which no one can take away. Where now is the joy of the murderers of our Lord, and the sorrow of his friends?

Vincent's NT Word Studies

18. He saith (lalei). Emphasizing the purport of the saying.

A little while (to mikron). In vv. 16, 17, without the article. Here the article the or this little while defines the special point of their difficulty; this "little while" of which He speaks.

We cannot tell (ouk oidamen). Rev., more simply and literally, we know not.

He saith (lalei). Emphasizing the form of the saying.
