16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever—
Holy Spirit is describe as a helper,
Greek writers, used of a legal advisor, pleader, proxy, or advocate, one who comes forward in behalf of and as the representative of another.

The Holy Spirit is called a Paraclete because He undertakes Christ’s office in the world while Christ is not in the world as the God–Man in bodily form.
