Luke 22:10-16 NIV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Luke 22:7-20

What a hopeful prospect had we of Christ's doing a great deal of good by his preaching in the temple during the feast of unleavened bread, which continued seven days, when the people were every morning, and early in the morning, so attentive to hear him! But here is a stop put to it. He must enter upon work of another kind; in this, however, he shall do more good than in the other, for neither Christ's nor his church's suffering days are their idle empty days. Now here we have, I. The... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Luke 22:7-23

22:7-23 There came the day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, on which the Passover had to be sacrificed. Jesus despatched Peter and John. "Go," he said, "and make ready the Passover for us that we may eat it." They said to him, "Where do you want us to make it ready?" "Look you," he said to them, "when you have gone into the city, a man will meet you, carrying a jar of water. Follow him to the house into which he enters; and you will say to the master of the house, 'The Teacher says to you,... read more

And he said unto them, behold ,.... Giving them a sign, whereby they should know the very house, where he would keep the passover: when ye are entered into the city ; that is, the city of Jerusalem; for Christ and his disciples were now at Bethany, from whence he sent Peter and John thither, where only the passover was to be killed and eaten: there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water ; the Persic version adds, "upon his back"; for which he had been to some well, or... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 22:11

And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house ,.... The master of it; for the man bearing the pitcher of water seems to be a servant only: the master saith unto thee : by these his two disciples, Peter and John; it looks as if the word "master", as peculiar to Christ, and by way of eminency belonging to him, Matthew 23:10 was well known to those who believed, and were followers of him, as the man of this house might be; see John 11:28 . The Syriac and Persic versions read, "our... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 22:12

And he shall show you a large upper room furnished ,.... With all things necessary, to eat and drink out of, at the passover; there make ready . The Ethiopic version adds, "for us", as in Mark 14:15 . The Persic version renders it, "there prepare a place"; but this was prepared already; the words design the preparation of the passover, and every thing proper for it. read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 22:13

And they went ,.... From Bethany to Jerusalem: and found as he had said unto them ; they met the man with the pitcher of water, and by following him, found the house Christ meant to keep the passover at; they told the master of it, what Christ ordered them, who immediately showed them a very convenient room, as he had described to them: and they made ready the passover ; provided a lamb, and got it killed and dressed, and prepared every thing necessary for the keeping of the feast,... read more

And when the hour was come ,.... When it was evening, the last of the two evenings, when it was dark, at least after six o'clock; See Gill on Matthew 26:20 . he sat down ; or lay along on a couch, as was the custom; see the note, as before: and the twelve apostles with him ; for Judas, after he had made his bargain with the chief priests, Scribes, and elders, came and took his place with the rest of the apostles, both to cover his sin, and to watch the best opportunity of betraying... read more

And he said unto them ,.... The twelve apostles, as they were eating the passover, it being usual to talk and converse much at such a time; See Gill on Matthew 26:21 . With desire have I desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer ; not for the sake of eating; for though he was traduced as a glutton, and did often eat and drink in a free and familiar way, both at the tables of Pharisees, and of publicans and sinners; yet he was not a man given to appetite; witness his fast of... read more

For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof ,.... Of the passover, and which now, with the rest of the ceremonial law, was to be abolished: until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God ; signifying, not that he should eat of it in the kingdom of God, where it would be fulfilled; seeing the passover was never more to take place, neither in the Gospel dispensation, nor in the heavenly glory; both which may be meant by the kingdom of God; but that he should never eat more of it in... read more
