Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

John 14:21

_ _ He that hath my commandments and keepeth them, etc. — (See on John 14:15).

_ _ my Father and I will love him — Mark the sharp line of distinction here, not only between the Divine Persons but the actings of love in Each respectively, towards true disciples.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on John 14:18-24.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

John 14:21

He that hath my commandments — Written in his heart. I will manifest myself to him — More abundantly.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

John 14:21

He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will (k) manifest myself to him.

(k) I will show myself to him, and be known by him, as if he saw me with his eyes: but this showing of himself is not bodily, but spiritual, yet so plain that no other showing could be more evident.
