Jesus said, I'm going to go away and I'm going to send you another periclate to stand beside you,

when?

After you go through all of this and you come home and you're weeping in

frustration then I'm going to send the spirit along that make you feel better.

That's not what he's saying here.

In the ancient world, a paraclate was the title that was given to a defense attorney and usually the kind of defense attorney that a family was involved with on a permanent retainer basis.

So that any time a person got in trouble,

they could call upon their paraclete

to stand with them in the midst of the crisis.

Now, when Jesus said, I'm going to go away

and I'm going to send you a comforter or a paracled.

He was not saying that after I send you out in the world

like Laims in the midst of wolves

and you get your brains beat in and you suffer humiliation and tragedy and persecution all of which you

will suffer he said but don't worry after you go through all of this hassle and you come home and you're weeping in

frustration then I'm going to send the spirit along that make you feel better.

That's not what he's saying here. He's saying that I am going to send another periclate to stand beside you, went.

In the midst of the battle, in the midst of the struggle, in the midst of the battle, in the midst of the struggle, in the midst of the crisis.

In fact, the reason why the King James used the term comforter was that when the King James version was written the language

of English at that time was much more closely tied to its Latin roots than it is today.

And a comforter was not thought of in the way we're describing it today.

But rather here we have it coming from the Latin, kum with, so a comforter is somebody who comes with.
