The Gospel of Luke, an exposition
Erdman, Charles Rosenbury
Bible. Luke -- Commentaries
14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the apostles with
him. 15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat
this passover with you before I suffer: 16 For I say unto you, I
shall not eat it, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17
And he received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, Take
this, and divide it among yourselves: 18 for I say unto you, I
shall not drink from henceforth of the fruit of the vine, until
the kingdom of God shall come. 19 And he took bread, and when he
had given thanks, he brake it, and gave to them, saying, This is
my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. 20
And the cup in like manner after supper, saying, This cup is the
new covenant in my blood, _even_ that which is poured out for you.
21 But behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the
table. 22 For the Son of man indeed goeth, as it hath been
determined: but woe unto that man through whom he is betrayed! 23
And they began to question among themselves, which of them it was
that should do this thing.
24 And there rose also a contention among them, which of them was
accounted to be the greatest. 25 And he said unto them, The kings
of the Gentiles have lordship over them; and they that have
authority over them are called Benefactors. 26 But ye _shall_ not
_be_ so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as
the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. 27 For
which is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is
not he that sitteth at meat? but I am in the midst of you as he
that serveth. 28 But ye are they that have continued with me in my
temptations; 29 and I appoint unto you a kingdom, even as my
Father appointed unto me, 30 that ye may eat and drink at my table
in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones judging the twelve
tribes of Israel. 31 Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have
you, that he might sift you as wheat: 32 but I made supplication
for thee, that thy faith fail not; and do thou, when once thou
hast turned again, establish thy brethren. 33 And he said unto
him, Lord, with thee I am ready to go both to prison and to death.
34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this
day, until thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
