Dear Clay: Thanks for your research into the commentaries. You have more of them than I! Paul's usage is not determinative for the Johannine usage; but both spoke and wrote Koine Greek so there must be some KOINWNIA or commonalty of meaning (pun intended). I pointed up Galatians 1:6-7 because the two words are there juxtaposed in a manner which clearly brings out the difference between them, IMHO. My view of John 14:16 is roughly > ALLOS "another of the same kind," > hETEROS "another of a different kind" : compare the English Greek-derived words "heterodoxy" and "allotropy". This distinction is not cut-and-dried, as others have posted. But in John 14:16 we could reasonably infer that the ALLON PARAKLHTON is of the same Substance as the first Paraclete in 1 John 2:1, PARAKLHTOV ECOMEN PROS TON PATERA IHSOUN CRISTON DIKAION. But immediately we get into forbidden theological territory, so I'll end it there without further ado.
