Luke 10:22

22 All things are delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows who the Son is but the Father, nor who the Father is but the Son, and he to whom the Son may choose to reveal Him."

Luke 10:22 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 10:22

All things are delivered to me of my Father
In some ancient copies, and in the Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions, before these words, are read, "and turning to his disciples he said, all things"

and no man knoweth who the Son is;
what is his name, his nature, his perfections and glory; and how he is the Son of God, his only begotten Son:

but the Father;
who begat him, and whose own, and proper Son he is:

and who the Father is;
what are his perfections, purposes, grace, greatness, mind, and will:

but the Son;
who is of him, and lay in his bosom:

and he to whom the Son will reveal him:
in himself, by his Spirit; (See Gill on Matthew 11:27).

Luke 10:22 In-Context

20 Nevertheless rejoice not at this, that the spirits submit to you; but rejoice that your names are registered in Heaven."
21 On that same occasion Jesus was filled by the Holy Spirit with rapturous joy. "I give Thee fervent thanks," He exclaimed, "O Father, Lord of Heaven and earth, that Thou hast hidden these things from sages and men of understanding, and hast revealed them to babes. Yes, Father, for such has been Thy gracious will.
22 All things are delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows who the Son is but the Father, nor who the Father is but the Son, and he to whom the Son may choose to reveal Him."
23 And He turned towards His disciples and said to them apart, "Blessed are the eyes which see what you see!
24 For I tell you that many Prophets and kings have desired to see the things you see, and have not seen them, and to hear the things you hear, and have not heard them."
