You are my friends This phrase marks a profound shift in the relationship between Jesus and His disciples. The Greek word for "friends" here is "φίλοι" (philoi), which implies a deep, personal connection. In the ancient world, friendship was considered a bond of mutual respect and loyalty. Jesus elevates His disciples from mere followers to intimate companions, indicating a relationship based on love and trust. This reflects the covenantal friendship God desires with humanity, reminiscent of the friendships seen in the Old Testament, such as that between David and Jonathan. if you do what I command you If ye do whatsoever I command you.--Better, the things which I am commanding you, (Comp. John 14:21; John 14:23.) Verse 14. - Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you - just because I command you.

Our Lord then explains more and more to them how they can and do claim this glorious designation.(1) They will vindicate the position for themselves if they are absolutely trustful and obedient. (2) But they can have a new and nobler proof. Greek YouὙμεῖς (Hymeis) Personal / Possessive Pronoun - Nominative 2nd Person Plural Strong's 4771: You.
