{Whatsoever ye shall ask} (hoti an ait(8873)(8874)e). Indefinite
relative clause with hoti (neuter accusative singular of
hostis), an and the aorist active subjunctive of aite(935c).
This is an advance thought over verse 12 . {In my name} (en t(9369)
onomati mou). First mention of his "name" as the open sesame to
the Father's will. See also 14:26 15:16 16:23,24,26 . {That
will I do} ( outo poi(8873)(935c)). The Father answers prayers ( 15:16 16:23 ), but so does the Son (here and verse 14 ). The purpose
(hina clause with first aorist passive subjunctive of doxaz(935c))
is "that the Father may be glorified in the Son." Plead Christ's
name in prayer to the Father.
