L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 22:1-71

THE TREACHERY OF JUDAS (vs.1-6) As the Passover feast drew near, the chief priests and Pharisees felt hard pressed to find some way of apprehending and killing this "prophet" who was offending their pride. They feared to arrest Him in the presence of the people, and further, they did not want to do it on the Passover, for it might cause an uproar of the people (Matthew 26:5). But God had decreed that the Passover would be the day of His sacrifice. Also Judas, because of having hardened his... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 22:1-71

LAST DAY UPON EARTH Here we meet the momentous events recorded in Matthew 26-27 and Mark 14-15, and there treated as fully as space permitted. The incidents peculiar to Luke are first, the explanation of Judas’ conduct that Satan entered into him (Luke 22:3 ). Satan can enter into no man without his own consent, but the only safeguard against that is the new birth, (John 3:0 ); second, the information that Peter and John were the two disciples sent to make ready the passover (Luke 22:8 );... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Luke 22:1-71

Seeking Opportunity Luk 22:3 Here is a vivid instance of the craft of that old serpent the devil. He did not seek out a stranger, a prominent politician, or statesman, or leader of the general public; he entered into one of the twelve. We should recognise ability wherever we discern it. Here is a lesson for the Church. Only one of the twelve could have done this work. A singular qualification for mischief indeed, a qualification undeniable; that which ought to have been the secret of the best... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 22:7-39

"Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. (8) And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. (9) And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? (10) And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. (11) And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 22:21-38

21-38 How unbecoming is the worldly ambition of being the greatest, to the character of a follower of Jesus, who took upon him the form of a servant, and humbled himself to the death of the cross! In the way to eternal happiness, we must expect to be assaulted and sifted by Satan. If he cannot destroy, he will try to disgrace or distress us. Nothing more certainly forebodes a fall, in a professed follower of Christ, than self-confidence, with disregard to warnings, and contempt of danger.... read more

Frank Binford Hole

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 22:1-99

Luke 22 AS WE COMMENCE to read this chapter, we reach the closing scenes of our Lord’s life. The Passover was not only a standing witness to Israel’s deliverance from Egypt but also a type of the great Sacrifice which was yet to come. Now at last the climax approached, and “Christ our Passover” was to be sacrificed for us precisely at the Passover season. The religious leaders were scheming how they might kill Him in spite of the fact that many of the people viewed Him with favour. Satan... read more

Paul E. Kretzmann

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Luke 22:21-23

The traitor at the table: v. 21. But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth Me is with Me on the table. v. 22. And truly the Son of Man goeth as it was determined; but woe unto the man by whom He is betrayed! v. 23. And they began to enquire among themselves which of them it was that should do this thing. See Matthew 26:1-Lamentations :; Mark 14:18-Ecclesiastes :. Jesus had just established and instituted the meal of His grace and kindness and salvation. But during all this time His... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Luke 22:14-23

3. The Passover and the Celebration of the Lord’s Supper (Luke 22:14-23)(Parallel to Matthew 26:20-29; Mark 14:17-25; John 13:21-35.)14And when the hour was come, he sat down [reclined at table], and the twelve 15[om., twelve3] apostles with him. And he said unto them, With desire I have desiredto eat this passover with you before I suffer: 16For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof,4 until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17And he took the5 cup, andgave thanks, and said, Take... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 22:14-23

the Feast of Love and Its Shadow Luke 22:14-23 The human soul of Jesus needed this sweet fellowship with loyal friends to nerve it for its sorrows; and He desired to transmit it as a perpetual legacy for His Church in after-days. We may think of that table being elongated till it reaches down the centuries to where we are seated. Look down the long vista and at the end behold the Master Himself! These two allusions to the kingdom of God, Luke 22:16 ; Luke 22:18 , point onward to the marriage... read more
