SUMMARY:6th Sunday of Easter
DESCRIPTION:I WILL ASK THE FATHER\nA commentary by St John Chrysostom 1\n◊◊◊\nIf you love me\, said Christ\, keep my commandments. I have commanded you\nto love one another and to treat one another as I have treated you. To love me is\nto obey these commands\, to submit to me your beloved. And I will ask the Father\, \nand he will give you another Counselor. This promise shows once again Christ’s\nconsideration. Because his disciples did not yet know who he was\, it was likely\nthat they would greatly miss his companionship\, his teaching\, his actual physical\npresence\, and be completely disconsolate when he had gone. Therefore he said: I \nwill ask the Father\, and he will give you another Counselor\, meaning another like\nhimself. \nThey received the Spirit after Christ had purified them by his sacrifice. The\nSpirit did not come down on them while Christ was still with them\, because this\nsacrifice had not yet been offered. But when sin had been blotted out and the\ndisciples\, sent out to face danger\, were preparing themselves for the battle\, they\nneeded the Holy Spirit’s coming to encourage them. If you ask why the Spirit did\nnot come immediately after the resurrection\, this was in order to increase their\ngratitude for receiving him by increasing their desire. They were troubled by\nnothing as long as Christ was with them\, but when his departure had left them\ndesolate and very much afraid\, they would be most eager to receive the Spirit. \nHe will remain with you\, Christ said\, meaning his presence with you will not\nbe ended by death. But since there was a danger that hearing of a Counselor\nmight lead them to expect another incarnation and to think they would be able to \nsee the Holy Spirit\, he corrected this idea by saying: The world cannot receive him \nbecause it does not see him. For he will not be with you in the same way as I am\,\nbut will dwell in your very souls\, He will be in you. \nChrist called him the Spirit of truth because the Spirit would help them to\nunderstand the types of the old law. By He will be with you he meant\, He will be \nwith you as I am with you\, but he also hinted at the difference between them\,\nnamely\, that the spirit would not suffer as he had done\, nor would he ever\ndepart. \n\nThe world cannot receive him because it does not see him. Does this imply\nthat the Spirit is visible? By no means; Christ is speaking here of knowledge\, for\nhe adds: or knows him. Sight being the sense by which we perceive things most\ndistinctly\, he habitually used this sense to signify knowledge. By the world he\nmeans here the wicked\, thus giving his disciples the consolation of receiving a\nspecial gift. He said that the Spirit was another like himself\, that he would not\nleave them\, that he would come to them just as he himself had come\, and that he\nwould remain in them. Yet even this did not drive away their sadness\, for they\nstill wanted Christ himself and his companionship. So to satisfy them he said: I \nwill not leave you orphans; I will come back to you. Do not be afraid\, for when I\npromised to send you another counselor I did not mean that I was going to\nabandon you for ever\, nor by saying that he would remain with you did I mean\nthat I would not see you again. Of course I also will come to you; I will not leave \nyou orphans. \n1 Journey with the Fathers: Commentaries on the Sunday Gospels – Year A. Ed. Edith\nBarnecut\, OSB.
