John 14:2 in the NASB reads: “"In My Father's house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.”

John 14:2 is found in the New Testament, in the book of John, chapter 14, verse 2.

John is traditionally attributed to John the Apostle, son of Zebedee. It was written c. AD 85–95.

John's Gospel opens not in Bethlehem but "in the beginning," declaring Jesus to be the eternal Word made flesh. Through seven sign-miracles and seven "I AM" sayings, it presents Jesus as the bread, the light, the way, and the resurrection — that we might believe and have life in his name.

John explores themes including Word Made Flesh, Belief, Eternal Life, I AM, Love. These themes shape the meaning and context of John 14:2.
