Lucas 14:22 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 14:22

And the servant said
After he had been and brought in a large number of such as are before described, and he was directed to, and succeeded to the gathering of them in:

Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded;
the apostles exactly observed the orders of their Lord and master; they began to preach the Gospel at Jerusalem; and being drove from thence, they went and preached to the Jews of the dispersion, and to the proselytes among the Gentiles:

and yet there is room;
that is, for the Gentiles, after God's elect, among the Jews, for that time were gathered in: there was room provided for them in the heart and love of God from everlasting, and in electing grace; in the suretyship engagements of Christ, in the covenant of his grace; and they had a place in the redeeming grace of Christ, in time; and in the last commission he gave to his disciples; and there was now room for them in the church of God; and will be in the new Jerusalem, and in the heavenly glory.

Lucas 14:22 In-Context

20 También otro dijo: "Me he casado, y por eso no puedo ir."

21 Cuando el siervo regresó, informó de todo esto a su señor. Entonces, enojado el dueño de la casa, dijo a su siervo: "Sal enseguida por las calles y callejones de la ciudad, y trae acá a los pobres, los mancos, los ciegos y los cojos."

22 Y el siervo dijo: "Señor, se ha hecho lo que ordenaste, y todavía hay lugar."

23 Entonces el señor dijo al siervo: "Sal a los caminos y por los cercados, y oblígalos a entrar para que se llene mi casa.

24 "Porque os digo que ninguno de aquellos hombres que fueron invitados probará mi cena."
