Exegesis
The final coordinate clause kai ta erchomena anangelei hymin {καὶ τὰ ἐρχόμενα ἀναγγελεῖ ὑμῖν | kaì tà er-khó-me-na a-nang-ge-leî hy-mîn} broadens the promise to future realities, with the substantival participle ta erchomena indicating what is coming and the future verb anangelei expressing disclosure to the disciples. The whole sequence moves from the Spirit’s coming, to guidance in truth, to the source of His speech, and finally to revelation of future matters, and the English renderings preserve that progression while easing the Greek word order into natural discourse.
