 The line you’re referring to is from Gospel of John 16:16.

“A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go to the Father.”
— Jesus

In context, Jesus Christ was speaking to His disciples about His coming death, resurrection, and return to the Father. Different Christian traditions interpret the “little while” as referring to:

• His death and resurrection,
• the coming of the Holy Spirit,
• and/or His eventual return.
