1 And he sayd vnto his disciples: Let not youre hertes be troubled. Beleve in god and beleve in me. 2 In my fathers housse are many mansions. If it were not so I wolde have tolde you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And yf I go to prepare a place for you I will come agayne and receave you even vnto my selfe that where I am there maye ye be also. 4 And whither I go ye knowe and the waye ye knowe. 5 Thomas sayde vnto him: Lorde we knowe not whyther thou goest. Also how is it possible for vs to knowe the waye? 6 Iesus sayd vnto him: I am the waye the truthe and the life. And no man cometh vnto the father but by me. 7 Yf ye had knowen me ye had knowen my father also. And now ye knowe him and have sene him. 8 Philip sayd vnto him: Lorde shew vs the father and it suffiseth vs. 9 Iesus sayde vnto him: have I bene so longe tyme with you: and yet hast thou not knowen me? Philip he that hath sene me hath sene the father. And how sayest thou then: shew vs the father? 10 Belevest thou not that I am in the father and the father in me? The wordes that I speake vnto you I speakee not of my selfe: but the father that dwelleth in me is he that doeth the workes. 11 Beleve me that I am [in] the father and the father in me. At the leest beleve me for the very workes sake. 12 Verely verely I saye vnto you: he that beleveth on me the workes that I doo the same shall he do and greater workes then these shall he do because I go vnto my father. 13 And whatsoever ye axe in my name that will I do that the father might be glorified by the sonne. 14 Yf ye shall axe eny thige in my name I will do it 15 If ye love me kepe my comaundementes 16 and I will praye the father and he shall geve you a nother comforter that he maye byde with you ever 17 which is the sprete of truthe whome the worlde cannot receave because the worlde seyth him not nether knoweth him. But ye knowe him. For he dwelleth with you and shalbe in you. 18 I will not leave you comfortlesse: but will come vnto you. 19 Yet a litell whyle and the worlde seith me no moare: but ye shall se me. For I live and ye shall live. 20 That daye shall ye knowe that I am in my father and you in me and I in you. 21 He that hath my commaundementes and kepeth them the same is he that loveth me. And he that loveth me shall be loved of my father: and I will love him and will shewe myne awne selfe vnto him. 22 Iudas sayde vnto him (not Iudas Iscarioth) Lorde what is the cause that thou wilt shewe thy selfe vnto vs and not vnto the worlde? 23 Iesus answered and sayde vnto him: yf a man love me and wyll kepe my sayinges my father also will love him and we will come vnto him and will dwelle with him. 24 He that loveth me not kepeth not my sayinges. And the wordes which ye heare are not myne but the fathers which sent me. 25 This have I spoken vnto you beynge yet present with you. 26 But that comforter which is the holy gost (whom my father will sende in my name) he shall teache you all thinges and bringe all thinges to youre remembraunce whatsoever I have tolde you. 27 Peace I leve with you my peace I geve vnto you. Not as the worlde geveth geve I vnto you. Let not youre hertes be greved nether feare ye. 28 Ye have hearde how I sayde vnto you: I go and come agayne vnto you. If ye loved me ye wolde verely reioyce because I sayde I go vnto the father. 29 For the father is greater then I. And now have I shewed you before it come that when it is come to passe ye might beleve. 30 Here after will I not talke many mordes vnto you. For the rular of this worlde commeth and hath nought in me. 31 But that the worlde maye knowe that I love the father: therfore as the father gave me commaundment even so do I. Ryse let vs go hence.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
Amongst other things, when the Holy Gospel was being read, ye heard what the Lord Jesus said, "I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life." Truth and life doth every man desire; but not every man doth find the way.

We have now the opportunity, dearly, beloved, as far as we can, of understanding the earlier words of the Lord from the later, and His previous statements by those that follow, in what you have heard was His answer to the question of the Apostle Thomas.

The Prophet said to the Jews, "Thou hadst the countenance of a harlot, thou wert shameless towards all men." ( Jer. iii. 3, LXX.) Now it seems fitting to use this expression not only against that city, but against all who shamelessly set their faces against the truth.

… He might come under the apprehension of man's senses, and having in Himself these six and twenty-four letters), then, becoming acquainted with Him, they ceased from their ignorance, and passed from death unto life, this name serving as their guide to the Father of truth. For the Father of all had resolved to put an end to ignorance, and to …
… strength sufficient to enjoy Thee; but I found it not until I embraced that "Mediator between God and man, the man Christ Jesus," "who is over all, God blessed for ever," calling unto me, and saying, "I am the way, the truth, and the life," and mingling that food which I was unable to receive with our flesh.
