Luc 12:8 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 12:8

Also I say unto you
The same as in ( Matthew 10:32 )

whosoever shall confess me before men, him shall the son of man
also confess before the angels of God;
only instead of I, he here calls himself "the son of man"; and instead of "before my Father which is in heaven", here it is, "before the angels of God"; who will accompany Christ when he comes to judgment, and will be present, when he shall acknowledge his true followers as the blessed of his Father, the chosen of God, his redeemed and sanctified ones; and reject others before his Father, and the whole universe of rational beings: it is said in the Targum on ( Song of Solomon 1:15 ) .

``when the children of Israel do the will of their king, he by his word (the Logos) praises them in the family of the holy angels.''

This Christ, the eternal word, will do at the great day.

Luc 12:8 In-Context

6 Ne vend-on pas cinq passereaux pour deux sous? Cependant, aucun d'eux n'est oublié devant Dieu.

7 Et même les cheveux de votre tête sont tous comptés. Ne craignez donc point: vous valez plus que beaucoup de passereaux.

8 Je vous le dis, quiconque me confessera devant les hommes, le Fils de l'homme le confessera aussi devant les anges de Dieu;

9 mais celui qui me reniera devant les hommes sera renié devant les anges de Dieu.

10 Et quiconque parlera contre le Fils de l'homme, il lui sera pardonné; mais à celui qui blasphémera contre le Saint-Esprit il ne sera point pardonné.
