Lucas 13:27

27 y El dirá: "Os digo que no sé de dónde sois; APARTAOS DE MI, TODOS LOS QUE HACEIS INIQUIDAD."

Lucas 13:27 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 13:27

But he shall say,
&c] The Persic version adds, "be gone from my sight, and be far from my door"; expressing indignation at them, an abhorrence of them, as not being able to bear them in his sight, or near unto him:

I tell you, I know you not whence you are;
this is repeated, and with a strong asseveration, to denote the certainty of the truth expressed, and to cast off all hope in them, of ever succeeding by their entreaties and importunity:

depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity;
or "of a lie", as the Syriac and Persic versions render it: for they were deceitful workers, they professed what they did not from the heart believe; they said they were Christians, but were not, and now are found liars; they only attended on the word and ordinances in an hypocritical way, and trusted in, and depended upon, their outward profession of religion, and subjection to ordinances; and by so doing, instead of working righteousness, wrought iniquity; and so as they did not submit to Christ and his righteousness, they are bid to depart from him, as wicked and unrighteous men, as they were: the word "all" is here used, which is not in ( Matthew 7:23 ) which agrees with ( Psalms 6:8 ) to which there seems to be a reference, though it is omitted here, in the Syriac, Arabic, and Persic versions; (See Gill on Matthew 7:23).

Lucas 13:27 In-Context

25 Después que el dueño de la casa se levante y cierre la puerta, y vosotros, estando fuera, comencéis a llamar a la puerta, diciendo: "Señor, ábrenos", El respondiendo, os dirá: "No sé de dónde sois."

26 Entonces comenzaréis a decir: "Comimos y bebimos en tu presencia, y enseñaste en nuestras calles;"

27 y El dirá: "Os digo que no sé de dónde sois; APARTAOS DE MI, TODOS LOS QUE HACEIS INIQUIDAD."

28 Allí será el llanto y el crujir de dientes cuando veáis a Abraham, a Isaac, a Jacob y a todos los profetas en el reino de Dios, pero vosotros echados fuera.

29 Y vendrán del oriente y del occidente, del norte y del sur, y se sentarán a la mesa en el reino de Dios.
