Lukas 14:24

24 Want ik zeg ulieden, dat niemand van die mannen, die genood waren, mijn avondmaal smaken zal.

Lukas 14:24 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 14:24

For I say unto you
Most solemnly affirm it, and even swear to it, nothing is more certain, or will be found more true:

that none of those men that were bidden:
the impenitent and unbelieving Jews, the Scribes, and Pharisees, and the greater part of the nation; who first had the Gospel published to them, who are the many that were called, though few were chosen, and therefore came not; nor did, nor

shall taste of my supper:
nor had they so much as a superficial knowledge of the Gospel, of the truths, blessings, promises, and ordinances of it; being given up to judicial blindness and hardness of heart; and from whom, in a little while, the Gospel was wholly taken; and is not yet afforded to them as a body; nor will till the latter day, when the veil shall be taken away, and they shall turn to the Lord, and all Israel shall be saved; but as for the first disbelievers and rejecters of Christ among the Jews, they died in their sins, and perished eternally.

Lukas 14:24 In-Context

22 En de dienstknecht zeide: Heer, het is geschied, gelijk gij bevolen hebt, en nog is er plaats.

23 En de heer zeide tot den dienstknecht: Ga uit in de wegen en heggen; en dwing ze in te komen, opdat mijn huis vol worde;

24 Want ik zeg ulieden, dat niemand van die mannen, die genood waren, mijn avondmaal smaken zal.

25 En vele scharen gingen met Hem; en Hij, Zich omkerende, zeide tot hen:

26 Indien iemand tot Mij komt en niet haat zijn vader, en moeder, en vrouw, en kinderen, en broeders, en zusters, ja, ook zelfs zijn eigen leven, die kan Mijn discipel niet zijn.
