ἔχων … τηρῶν. Bearing them steadfastly in his mind and observing them in his life. Ἐκεῖνος, with great emphasis (see on John 1:18); he and no else.

ἐμφανίσω. Once more, as in John 7:17, willing obedience is set forth as the road to spiritual enlightenment. Ἐμφανίζειν (here only in S. John) is stronger than φανεροῦν.
