Exegesis
The final sequence, kago agapeso auton kai emphaniso autō emauton {κἀγὼ ἀγαπήσω αὐτὸν καὶ ἐμφανίσω αὐτῷ ἐμαυτόν | kagō a-ga-pē-sō au-ton kai em-pha-ni-sō au-tō e-mau-ton}, stacks two future promises under the emphatic first-person pronoun: Jesus will respond with love and with self-disclosure.
The reflexive emauton {ἐμαυτόν | e-mauton} sharpens the intimacy of the promise so that the revelation is personal rather than merely informational.
In context — John 14:21
The one who has My commandments and keeps them—that one is the one who loves Me; and the one who loves Me will be loved by My Father , and I will love him and make Myself known to him.
