Luke 10:22

22 "My Father has given me all things. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father. And no one knows who the Father is, except the Son and those whom the Son chooses to tell."

Luke 10:22 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 10:22

All things are delivered to me of my Father
In some ancient copies, and in the Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions, before these words, are read, "and turning to his disciples he said, all things"

and no man knoweth who the Son is;
what is his name, his nature, his perfections and glory; and how he is the Son of God, his only begotten Son:

but the Father;
who begat him, and whose own, and proper Son he is:

and who the Father is;
what are his perfections, purposes, grace, greatness, mind, and will:

but the Son;
who is of him, and lay in his bosom:

and he to whom the Son will reveal him:
in himself, by his Spirit; (See Gill on Matthew 11:27).

Luke 10:22 In-Context

20 But you should not be happy because the spirits obey you but because your names are written in heaven."
21 Then Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the people who are wise and smart. But you have shown them to those who are like little children. Yes, Father, this is what you really wanted.
22 "My Father has given me all things. No one knows who the Son is, except the Father. And no one knows who the Father is, except the Son and those whom the Son chooses to tell."
23 Then Jesus turned to his followers and said privately, "You are blessed to see what you now see.
24 I tell you, many prophets and kings wanted to see what you now see, but they did not, and they wanted to hear what you now hear, but they did not."
