路加福音 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.

路加福音 14:22 In-Context

20 又 有 一 個 說 : 我 才 娶 了 妻 , 所 以 不 能 去 。
21 那 僕 人 回 來 , 把 這 事 都 告 訴 了 主 人 。 家 主 就 動 怒 , 對 僕 人 說 : 快 出 去 , 到 城 裡 大 街 小 巷 , 領 那 貧 窮 的 、 殘 廢 的 、 瞎 眼 的 、 瘸 腿 的 來 。
22 僕 人 說 : 主 阿 , 你 所 吩 咐 的 已 經 辦 了 , 還 有 空 座 。
23 主 人 對 僕 人 說 , 你 出 去 到 路 上 和 籬 笆 那 裡 , 勉 強 人 進 來 , 坐 滿 我 的 屋 子 。
24 我 告 訴 你 們 , 先 前 所 請 的 人 , 沒 有 一 個 得 嘗 我 的 筵 席 。
