Luke 13:28

28 You will cry and grind your teeth when you see Avraham, Yitz'chak, Ya`akov and all the prophets inside the Kingdom of God, but yourselves thrown outside.

Luke 13:28 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 13:28

There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth
(See Gill on Matthew 8:12). This will be upon hearing the above sentence and character, "depart from me" and will be increased,

when ye shall see Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob:
whose offspring they were, and to whom they stood related according to the flesh; and of descent, from whom they boasted, and even trusted in it, thinking themselves the favourites of heaven, and expecting to be admitted into the kingdom of God, on account of it: sad will be the disappointment of such persons; a being born of religious parents, will neither give right unto, nor meetness for eternal glory; regeneration is not of blood:

and all the prophets in the kingdom of God;
whose prophecies were transmitted to them, and whose books they had in their hands, and read; and who desired to see and hear what they did, and which they now plead, and yet they did not enjoy, but were nevertheless happy: and

you [yourselves] thrust out:
with indignation and contempt, with shame and "ignominy", as the Persic version adds; not suffered to go in with them, though their sons and successors; but bid to depart, and ordered to be for ever separated from them, as only fit company for devils and damned spirits.

Luke 13:28 In-Context

26 Then you will say, `We ate and drank with you! you taught in our streets!'

27 and he will tell you, `I don't know where you're from. Get away from me, all you workers of wickedness!'

28 You will cry and grind your teeth when you see Avraham, Yitz'chak, Ya`akov and all the prophets inside the Kingdom of God, but yourselves thrown outside.

29 Moreover, people will come from the east, the west, the north and the south to sit at table in the Kingdom of God.

30 And notice that some who are last will be first, and some who are first will be last."
