Greetings Ray! I agree with you about 'it.' I just wasn't sure if that was what you were refering to. There definitely is no pronoun in 2:7. However, the article used with the participle "holding back" is masculine and thus should be translated "he who holds back." John 14:26: "That one" is there. It would have been better to translate it. However, the context still makes it clear who will teach us all things. John 15:26 also uses "that one." So does, John 16:8. I originally brought these verses up simply to demonstrate that the Holy Spirit is sometimes referenced as neuter and sometimes as masculine. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Hi Tim, I get the impression that you aren't getting into this capitalization thing. We've discovered so far that the Restrainer is the One who restrains. John 14:26 is clear about who will teach us all things. All three Persons are involved. But the final line is that He will teach you all things. See also John 4:25,"...when that One comes, (He) will declare all things to us." And John 4:19, "Sir, I perceive that You are a (Prophet). Parenthesis mine for comparison. An interesting comparison here might be 2Thess 2:2 with John 4:25 above. Also, 2Thess 2:8 with John 4:29. Let me know if you considered them; the operating word is "might". The disciples knew the Spirit of truth. John 14:17, "...but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; (I) will come to you." Later, Ray |
