• Jesus therefore adds that the truly obedient disciples (and here He speaks more spiritually and generally of His word, not merely of His commandments) should be loved of the Father. (“John 14” by J.N. Darby)
• It is not here a question of the love of God in sovereign grace to a sinner, but of the Father’s dealings with His children. Therefore it is in the path of obedience that the manifestations of the Father’s love and the love of Christ are found. We love, but do not caress, our naughty children. (“John 14” by J.N. Darby)
• This is not a commandment, but His word—a simple intimation of His mind or will; and, therefore, as a more thorough test, so followed by a fuller blessing. (“John 14” by W. Kelly)
• Where obedience lies comparatively on the surface, and self-will or worldliness is not judged, a commandment is always necessary to enforce it. People therefore ask, “Must I do this? Is there any harm in that?” To such the Lord’s will is solely a question of command. Now there are commandments, the expression of His authority; and they are not grievous. But, besides, where the heart loves Him deeply, His word will give enough expression of His will to him that loves Christ. (“John 14” by W. Kelly)
• Obedience now that He is absent must be more put to the proof, and is precious to Him as being real….His word is treasured because He Himself is loved. (“John 14” by W. Kelly)

a
The T. R. reads "will make an abode" instead of "we will make. . ." The middle voice gives the force of "our" in the strongest way, which the T. R. loses.
