Henceforth I call you not servants—that is, in the sense explained in the next words; for servants He still calls them (John 15:20), and they delight to call themselves so, in the sense of being "under law to Christ" (I Corinthians 9:20).
the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth—knows nothing of his master's plans and reasons, but simply receives and executes his orders.
but . . . friends, for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you—admitted you to free, unrestrained fellowship, keeping back nothing from you which I have received to communicate. (Compare Genesis 18:17; Psalms 25:14; Isaiah 50:4).
That ye love one another, etc.—(See on John 13:34-35).
