28 You have heard Me asay to you, ‘I am going away and coming back to you.’ If you loved Me, you would rejoice because1 I said, b‘I am going to the Father,’ for cMy Father is greater than I.  
29 “And anow I have told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe.  
30 I will no longer talk much with you, afor the ruler of this world is coming, and he has bnothing in Me.  
31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and aas the Father gave Me commandment, so I do. Arise, let us go from here.

John 14:30-31

Hereafter I will not talk much with you—"I have a little more to say, but My work hastens apace, and the approach of the adversary will cut it short."

for the prince of this world—(See on John 12:31).

cometh—with hostile intent, for a last grand attack, having failed in His first formidable assault (Luke 4:1-13) from which he "departed [only] for a season" (John 14:13).

and hath nothing in me—nothing of His own—nothing to fasten on. Glorious saying! The truth of it is, that which makes the Person and Work of Christ the life of the world (Hebrews 9:14; I John 3:5; II Corinthians 5:21).
