John 7:39

* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.

He was speaking about the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were later to receive. For the Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus wasn’t yet glorified.
World English Bible (WEB)
(But{G1161} this{G5124} spake he{G2036}{(G5627)} of{G4012} the Spirit{G4151}, which{G3739} they that believe{G4100}{(G5723)} on{G1519} him{G846} should{G3195}{(G5707)} receive{G2983}{(G5721)}: for{G1063} the Holy{G40} Ghost{G4151} was{G2258}{(G5713)} not yet{G3768} given; because{G3754} that Jesus{G2424} was{G1392} not yet{G3764} glorified{G1392}{(G5681)}.)
Strong's King James
(39) But this He spoke of the רוּחַ Ruach (Spirit) whom those believing in Him would receive for the רוּחַ Ruach hadn't yet come because Yeshua wasn't yet glorified.
The F.O.G*
[39] By this He meant the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him would later receive. The Spirit had not yet been given in fullness, since Jesus had not yet been glorified through His death, resurrection, and ascension.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
and this he said of the Spirit, which those believing in him were about to receive; for not yet was the Holy Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
Young's Literal Translation
