Exegesis
The hina {ἵνα | hí-na} clause gives the purpose of the whole promise, and hopou {ὅπου | hó-pou} introduces the location of fulfillment, with eimi ego kai hymeis ete {εἰμὶ ἐγὼ καὶ ὑμεῖς ἦτε | ei-mì e-gṓ kaì hy-meîs ê-te} stressing shared presence. The final juxtaposition of I and you places the emphasis on enduring fellowship rather than mere destination.
In context — John 14:3
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I am returning and will bring you to Myself, so that you also may be where I am.
