Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Luke 22:31-34

Luke 22:31-34. And the Lord said, &c. To make his disciples humble and watchful, and kindly affectionate one to another, Christ assured them, that Satan was seeking to destroy them all by his temptations. As if he had said, O Simon, Simon, behold Satan As in the case of Job; (Job 2:4-5;) hath desired to have you My apostles, εξητησατο υμας , hath required you, or sought you out; or requested permission, as Dr. Campbell translates it; to sift you as wheat To assault you by... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 22:24-38

149. Disciples’ failure foretold (Matthew 26:31-35; Mark 14:27-31; Luke 22:24-38; John 13:36-38)Despite all that Jesus had shown and taught his disciples about humility, and in spite of the death he was about to die for them, they were still arguing about who was the greatest among them. Jesus reminded them again of the different standards in the earthly and heavenly kingdoms. He had given them an example in the way he lived among them, showing that true greatness lay in serving others (Luke... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Luke 22:34

Luke 22:34. The cock shall not crow this day, &c.— As it is plain from this passage, and from the event, that the cock actually crew before Peter's third denial, we must certainly take the words of St. Luke and St. John for the common time of cock-crowing, which probably did not arrive till after the cock, which Peter had heard, had crowed the second time, and perhaps oftener; for it is well known, that those vigilant animals, on any little disturbance, often crow at midnight, or before it,... read more

33. I am ready, c.—honest-hearted, warmly-attached disciple, thinking thy present feelings immovable as a rock, thou shalt find them in the hour of temptation unstable as water: "I have been praying for thee," therefore thy faith shall not perish but thinking this superfluous, thou shalt find that "he that trusteth in his own heart is a fool" (Proverbs 28:26). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 22:31-34

5. Jesus’ announcement of Peter’s denial 22:31-34 (cf. Matthew 26:31-35; Mark 14:27-31; John 13:36-38)Luke placed this event next probably because of its logical connection with Jesus’ preceding comment about the disciples remaining faithful to Him during His past trials. That would not continue. However, he did not record Jesus’ announcement that all the disciples would desert Him (Matthew 26:31; Mark 14:27). Perhaps he did not do so because it presents a negative picture of disciples... read more
