Lucas 14:22

22 Y dijo el siervo: Señor, hecho es como mandaste, y aun hay lugar.

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 Y el otro dijo: Acabo de casarme, y por tanto no puedo ir.

21 Y vuelto el siervo, hizo saber estas cosas á su señor. Entonces enojado el padre de la familia, dijo á su siervo: Ve presto por las plazas y por las calles de la ciudad, y mete acá los pobres, los mancos, y cojos, y ciegos.

22 Y dijo el siervo: Señor, hecho es como mandaste, y aun hay lugar.

23 Y dijo el señor al siervo: Ve por los caminos y por los vallados, y fuérza los á entrar, para que se llene mi casa.

24 Porque os digo que ninguno de aquellos hombres que fueron llamados, gustará mi cena.
