Luke 22:48

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Luke 22:47-53

b. THE ARREST (Luke 22:47-53)(Parallel with Matthew 26:47-56; Mark 14:43-52; John 18:3-11.)47And [om., And] while he yet spake, behold a multitude [or, throng], and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him. 48But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou [deliverest thou up] the Son of man with a kiss? 49When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him [om., unto him17], Lord, shall we smite with the sword?... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 22:39-52

Luke GETHSEMANE Luk_22:39 - Luk_22:53 . ‘Put off thy shoes from off thy feet.’ Cold analysis is out of place here, where the deepest depth of a Saviour’s sorrows is partly disclosed, and we see Him bowing His head to the waves and billows that went over Him, for our sakes. Luke’s account is much condensed, but contains some points peculiar to itself. It falls into two parts-the solemn scene of the agony, and the circumstances of the arrest. I. We look with reverent awe and thankfulness at... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 22:47-53

“The Power of Darkness” Luke 22:47-53 It may have been about midnight when the lights and movement of feet indicated the approach of Judas and his band. The kiss of Judas was probably intended to hide his treachery from his fellow-disciples; but it did not deceive his Master, who even in that sad hour sought to touch his heart, Luke 22:48 . When Malchus’ ear was almost severed from the body, it was needful that our Lord should interpose, because, if Peter had been arrested, the gaze of... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 22:1-71

Here we have the record of final things before the Cross. The priests and the devil are seen in coalition. As the end approached, the Master is seen with the shadow of the Cross on Him, desiring to eat the Passover with His loved ones. Even in this connection the disciples contend over which of them is to be accounted the greatest. After the observance of the Passover and the institution of the new Feast, He declared to them, "Satan hath obtained you by asking" (margin). Notice carefully... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 22:1-71

Jesus Is Crucified And Rises Again (22:1-24:53). We now come to the final Section of Luke which is also in the form of a chiasmus (see analysis below). Central in this final chiasmus is the crucifixion of Jesus. This brings out how central the crucifixion is in the thinking of Luke. As the Servant of the Lord He is to be numbered among the transgressors for their sakes (Luke 22:37). This is indeed what the Gospel has been leading up to, something that is further demonstrated by the space given... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 22:47-53

The Approach Of Judas. Physical Swords Are Not Enough (22:47-53). Having finally satisfied Himself that the way ahead was in accordance with His Father’s will Jesus awaited His fate with equanimity. The battle having been fought and won in His mind and heart from this time on He goes forward without a moment’s hesitation. And in all His suffering we are made aware that He was in control. This passage deals very briefly with what happened in the Garden on the Mount of Olives. He was not taken... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 22:48

‘But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of man with a kiss?” ’ Jesus, however, knew better what was happening, and He responded by looking Judas firmly in the eye and asking him whether he really felt that such infamy could be justified. Surely even he must recognise that any other way would have been better than this? Did he not think that it portrayed a callousness which was extreme, even for him? For while, once we think about it, his perfidy went along with Judas’ presence,... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 22:47-53

Luke 22:47-2 Thessalonians : . The Arrest ( Mark 14:43-1 Thessalonians : *, Matthew 26:47-Titus : *).— In Lk.’ s account Jesus prevents Judas from giving the kiss. The resistance precedes the arrest (contrast Mk., Mt.). Luke 22:51 . Suffer ye thus far: if spoken to the officers, “ Excuse this act of resistance; it will not be repeated,” or “ Allow me to heal the wounded man:” if to the disciples, “ Let them go on with the arrest,” or “ Let what you have done suffice.” Luke 22:52 . Lk.... read more
