If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him." 8 Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us." 9 Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Today, all Christians know that Jesus was crucified and then he was risen from the dead, because all those things already happened. The disciples, however, hardly understood what was going on with Jesus on that evening. Let us try to understand what Jesus meant with such words as ‘room’ and ‘place’ and the promise of his coming back (14:3).
