John 16:7

16:7 But I tell you the truth, it is to your advantage that I am going away. For if I do not go away, the Advocate ¹  will not come to you, but if I go, I will send him to you.

John 19:15

19:15 Then they ²  shouted out, “Away with him! Away with him! ³  Crucify ⁴  him!” Pilate asked, ⁵  “Shall I crucify your king?” The high priests replied, “We have no king except Caesar!”

¹ tn Or “Helper” or “Counselor”; Grk “Paraclete,” from the Greek word παράκλητος (paraklhto"). See the note on the word “Advocate” in John 14:16 for a discussion of how this word is translated.

² tn Grk “Then these.”

³ tn The words “with him” (twice) are not in the Greek text. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

⁴ sn See the note on Crucify in 19:6.

⁵ tn Grk “Pilate said to them.” The words “to them” are not translated because it is clear in English who Pilate is addressing.
