John 16:10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and you see me no more; The world is examined, convicted, convinced, as to its false theories of righteousness.

Just as sin is revealed by the Spirit to be something far different from the breaking of certain specific injunctions, so righteousness is revealed to be something far different from the outward fulfilment of ceremonial or moral observances (cf. Matthew 5:20; 7:33; Romans 3:21, &c.; 10:3). (Bp. Westcott.)
