SEV Biblia, Chapter 15:22

Si no hubiera venido, ni les hubiera hablado, no tendrían pecado, mas ahora no tienen excusa de su pecado.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - John 15:22

Verse 22. But now they have no
cloke for their sin.] They are without excuse. See the margin, and see the note on chap. ix. 41. Christ had done such works as demonstrated him to be the Messiah-yet they rejected him: here lay their sin; and this sin, and the punishment to which it exposed them, still remain; for they still continue to reject the Lord that bought them.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 22. If I had not come and spoken unto them , etc.] The ignorance of the
Jews is represented as inexcusable, since Christ was come, and had preached unto them; if he had not come and told them that he was the Messiah, they might have pleaded an excuse for their ignorance of him, and his mission, and of the Father that sent him: but inasmuch as he was come in the flesh, and came to them his own; and came also a light into the world, carrying along with him evidence, conviction, and demonstration, of his being the Messiah; speaking such words as never man did; preaching with such authority as the Scribes and Pharisees did not; declaring in plain terms he was the Christ of God, and that if they did not believe him to be so, they would die in their sins; they could have no pretext to make for their ignorance and disbelief: if all this had not been done, they had not had sin ; or been guilty of the sin of unbelief, in the rejection of the Messiah; not that they would have been without sin in any sense, or without any kind of sin, but without this particular sin; at least they would have excused and wiped themselves clean, and would have looked like innocent and sinless persons, under all their ignorance and unbelief: but now they have no cloak for their sin ; they could not say, had he come to us, and told us that he was the Messiah, and given evidence of his being sent by the Father, we would have believed him, and received him as the Messiah; for he did do this, and so cut off all excuses and pretences from them.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 18-25 - How little do many persons think, that in opposing the
doctrine of Christ as our Prophet, Priest, and King, they prove themselves ignoran of the one living and true God, whom they profess to worship! The nam into which Christ's disciples were baptized, is that which they wil live and die by. It is a comfort to the greatest sufferers, if the suffer for Christ's name's sake. The world's ignorance is the tru cause of its hatred to the disciples of Jesus. The clearer and fulle the discoveries of the grace and truth of Christ, the greater is ou sin if we do not love him and believe in him.

Vincent's NT Word Studies

22. Had
sin (amartian eicon). See on ix. 41; 1 John i. 8.

Cloke (profasin). From pro, before, in front of, and fhmi, to say or affirm. Hence something which is placed in front of the true cause of a thing, a pretext. Compare 1 Thess. ii. 5; Acts xxvii. 30. Pretext carries the same idea, Latin, proetextum, something woven in front, with a view to concealment or deception. Rev., excuse. Wyc, excusation. The A.V. follows Tyndale: nothing to cloke their sin withal. Latimer ("Sermons"): "By such cloaked charity, when thou dost offend before Christ but once, thou hast offended twice herein." The word appears in the low Latin cloca, a bell (compare the French cloche, and English clock), and the name was given to a horseman's cloak because of its resemblance to a bell. The word palliate is from the Latin pallium, a cloak.
