we will come and make our abode with him—Astonishing statement! In the Father's "coming" He "refers to the revelation of Him as a Father to the soul, which does not take place till the Spirit comes into the heart, teaching it to cry, Abba, Father" [OLSHAUSEN]. The "abode" means a permanent, eternal stay! (Compare Leviticus 26:11-12; Ezekiel 37:26-27; II Corinthians 6:16; and contrast Jeremiah 14:8).
