John 14:12

Shall he do also (kakeinov poihsei). Emphatic pronoun ekeinov, "that one also."

Greater works than these (meizona toutwn). Comparative adjective neuter plural from megav with ablative case toutwn. Not necessarily greater miracles and not greater spiritual works in quality, but greater in quantity. Cf. Peter at Pentecost and Paul's mission tours. "Because I go" (oti egw poreuornai). Reason for this expansion made possible by the Holy Spirit as Paraclete (John 16:7).
