Luke 18:32

32 For He will be given up to the Gentiles, and be mocked, outraged and spit upon.

Luke 18:32 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 18:32

For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles
As he was by the chief priests, Scribes, and elders, to Pilate, the Roman governor, and by him to the soldiers:

and shall be mocked;
as he was by the latter, when they crowned him with thorns, arrayed him in a purple robe, and put a reed into his hand, and bowed the knee to him, saying, hail king of the Jews; and likewise by the Jews when he hung upon the cross:

and spitefully entreated.
The Syriac and Persic versions leave out this clause here, and read it the next verse. It may regard the injuries done him, the abuses and affronts he received, both by words and blows:

and spitted on;
as he was both by officers in the high priest's palace, and by the Roman soldiers in Pilate's hall; see ( Isaiah 50:6 ) .

Luke 18:32 In-Context

30 who shall not certainly receive many times as much in this life, and in the age that is coming the Life of the Ages."

31 Then He drew the Twelve to Him and said, "See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything written in the Prophets which refers to the Son of Man will be fulfilled.

32 For He will be given up to the Gentiles, and be mocked, outraged and spit upon.

33 They will scourge Him and put Him to death, and on the third day He will rise to life again."

34 Nothing of this did they understand. The words were a mystery to them, nor could they see what He meant.
