For... meaning "since", "because" or some similar sentiment...
But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.
The word for Spirit and the word for Ghost are the same word... pneuma.
But this spake he of the pneuma, they they that believe on him should recieve because the HOLY pneuma was not yet given.
The only difference between the two is that one is labeled holy... one is not.
But FOR doesn't seem to lend itself to mean OR IMO. But... I'm no scholar.
