4. Jesus’ passion announcement and the disciples’ lack of perception 18:31-34 (cf. Matthew 20:17-19; Mark 10:32-34)Jesus’ passion announcements to His disciples constitute important structural markers in Mark’s Gospel. Luke and Matthew did not use them this way. The incident before us was the third passion announcement that Jesus gave beside other allusions to His death that He made (cf. Luke 5:35; Luke 12:50; Luke 13:32-33; Luke 17:25).MatthewMarkLukeFirst passion announcementMatthew... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 18:32-33

This was Jesus’ first reference to the Gentiles’ role in His trial and death. Luke’s inclusion of this detail suggests that he did not want his Gentile readers to miss the guilt of Gentiles for Jesus’ death. The passive construction pictures Jesus as the victim of Gentile wrath."Not one prophet ever said all this, but the prophets together did say all this. Hence, this is a summation." [Note: Arnold G. Fruchtenbaum, Israelology: The Missing Link in Systematic Theology, p. 845.] read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 18:1-43

The Unjust Judge. The Pharisee and the Publican. The Rich Ruler1-8. The Unjust Judge (peculiar to Lk).There is a close connexion with what precedes. The mention of the Second Advent leads Christ to speak of the need of prayer and watchfulness in view of it. The main lessons of the parable are: (1) The duty of continual prayer; (2) the certain answer to prayer, if it be only persistent enough; (3) the certainty that in the end God will maintain the cause of His elect against their adversaries;... read more

(31-34) Then he took unto him the twelve.—See Notes on Matthew 20:17-19; Mark 10:32-34. St. Luke, like St. Mark, passes over the parable of the Labourers in the Vineyard. The insertion of the reference to the prophecies of the Passion is, on the other hand, peculiar to him, and is, perhaps, connected with the prominence given to those prophecies in Luke 24:27; Luke 24:44-45. read more

(32) He shall be delivered unto the Gentiles.—The words are nearly the same as in the other Gospels, but the “spitefully entreated” is peculiar to St. Luke. read more

Luke 18:1 That saying with others did encourage one to prayer. Then the Tempter again laid at me very sore, suggesting That neither the Mercy of God, nor yet the Blood of Christ did at all concern me, nor could they help me for my sin; therefore it was but vain to pray. Yet, thought I, I will pray. But, said the Tempter, your sin is unpardonable. Well, said I, I will pray. It is to no boot, said he. Yet, said I, I will pray. ... So I went to prayer to God.... And as I was thus before the... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 18:1-43

GRACE PRODUCING PERSISTENT PRAYER (vs.1-8) This section connects with the subjects of chapter 17. We have seen in the four sections of that chapter that the gospel of grace produces in the believer a spirit that is (1) forgiving; (2) humble; (3) thankful; and (4) watchful. To complete this list, a prayerful spirit is now added. Nothing should at any time discourage our consistency in prayer. The parable the Lord used as to this is most instructive. The judge He spoke of was in no way a... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 18:31-43

REJECTION At this point we enter the period of Christ’s formal rejection by His nation with which we have been made acquainted in the other synoptics, and hence we pass on to that which is peculiar to Luke, the conversion of Zaccheus (Luke 19:1-10 ) Jesus never declined an invitation to hospitality, but this is the first instance in which He ever invited himself (Luke 19:5 ). Murmured at for lodging with a “winner,” He justified the act (Luke 19:9-10 ) and then spake the parable of the pounds... read more
