A little while. Compare chs. 13:33; 16:16–22.

But ye see me. After the crucifixion and burial the world would see Jesus no more. But the disciples would see Him in His resurrected body. The words doubtless have also a spiritual significance. Even after the ascension the disciples would continue to see Jesus with their spiritual faculties.

Ye shall live. Both in a spiritual and in a literal sense (ch. 6:57).
