I came forth from the Father, etc.--that is, "And ye are right, for I have indeed so come forth,and shall soon return whence I came." This echo of the truth, alluded to in John 16:27, seems like thinking aloud, as if it were grateful to His own spirit on such a subject and at such an hour.
In that day--of the dispensation of the Spirit (as in John 14:20).
ye shall ask--inquire of
me nothing--by reason of the fulness of the Spirit's teaching (John 14:26; John 16:13; and compare 1 John 2:27).
