He had loved his disciples during his ministry on earth, and now he loved them to the v Jesus knew that the Father had given him authority over everything and that he had come from God and would return to God. Dear children, I will be with you only a little longer. And as I told the Jewish leaders, you will search for me, but you can’t come where I am going. | New Living Translation (NLT)
