An Exposition of the Gospel of St. John is unavailable, but you can change that!

John MacEvilly’s exposition of the gospel of John offers a clear, Catholic, passage-by-passage interpretation of the text. It combines traditional exegesis with moral exhortation and so has been widely used as a daily devotional. The work was originally intended for laymen, but quickly found a place as a textbook in seminary education and has seen numerous editions.

33. “To them,” the ministers sent to apprehend Him, who would carry back to the Rulers what they would hear Him say. “Yet a little while”—but a very brief period of time, six months from this—“I am with you.” I remain on earth, “and then I go to Him that sent Me.” Then I shall voluntarily submit to death, and return; but, until that time comes, of which I am fully aware, all your efforts to destroy Me shall be unavailing. I shall, till then, set at nought every attempt against me.
John 7:33
