Exegesis
The sequence `ou mē {οὐ μὴ | ou mḕ}` with `elthē {ἔλθῃ | élthē}` forms a forceful future denial, making the Paraclete’s coming impossible apart from Jesus’ departure.
In context — John 16:7
Yet I declare to you the truth : it is in your interest that I depart; for if I do not depart, the Comforter will certainly not come to you. But if I go, I will send Him to you.
