Then some of His disciples said among themselves, "What is this that He says to us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I go to the Father’?"

NET © Notes

tn Grk “What is this that he is saying to us.”

tn Grk “A little while, and you.”

tn Grk “and again a little while, and you.”

sn These fragmentary quotations of Jesus’ statements are from 16:16 and 16:10, and indicate that the disciples heard only part of what Jesus had to say to them on this occasion.
