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 Joh 12:31). cometh--with hostile intent, for a last grand attack, having failed in His first formidable assault (Luk 4:1-13) from which he "departed [only] for a season" (Joh 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 (Heb 9:14; Jo1 3:5; Co2 5:21).
