Exegesis
The phrase en tē agapē mou {ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ μου | en tē̂ a-gá-pē mou} locates the believers inside the sphere of Jesus’ love, so the wording points to relational belonging rather than a mere feeling.
The repeated en tē agapē {ἐν τῇ ἀγάπῃ | en tē̂ a-gá-pē} closes the verse by returning to the same sphere of love, linking the disciples’ promised abiding with Jesus’ own abiding.
