[Truth Defender]

My interpretation is as Jesus spoke. John 14 is a dialog between Jesus and his disciples regarding what happens after He is no longer with them here on earth. Jesus assures them that when needed or asked for by those who believe God will send an Advocate;

"The Advocate, the holy Spirit that the Father will send in my name--he will teach you everything and remind you of all that I told you"

You are correct...but it is not your "interpretation", it is your understanding of the verse and passage (which is the same as I understand it).

I say this because what Jesus promised was given strictly to the Apostles. In this respect, your explanation (what you call your interpretation?) is a comment on what Jesus said. Can you understand that?

"I say this because what Jesus promised was given strictly to the Apostles."

God did not give special privilege to the Apostles, only special burdens. I know it is contemporarily popular to play theological "gotcha" by citing this disclaimer, but that contradicts what else is said slightly further on in John:

John 14:21 Whoever has my commandments and observes them is the one who loves me. And whoever loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and reveal myself to him."
