"for the holy ghost was not given yet" Why? because that Jesus was not yet glorified. If being filled is our resurrection then it can't precede his resurrection.

Ok. He is talking about the spirit or "living water" that is given to everyone that believes in Him...not tongues. If it was a forshadowing it was a forshadowing of his spirit being poured out after His death, but again this is not talking about tongues. I am of the mind that the disciples were given special advantages by being that close to Him. I believe they very likely had been given the spirit before the others were. Thus the breathing and saying receive ye the spirit. IMO
