Luke 22:22

22 ὅτι ὁ υἱὸς μὲν ⸃ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου κατὰ τὸ ὡρισμένον πορεύεται, πλὴν οὐαὶ τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ ἐκείνῳ δι’ οὗ παραδίδοται.

Luke 22:22 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 22:22

And truly the son of man goeth
That is, dies, which is going the way of all the earth, ( Joshua 23:14 ) as it was determined;
in the counsels and purposes of God, and agreed to by Christ in the covenant of grace; see ( Acts 2:23 ) ( 4:28 ) the death of Christ, the manner of it, and the means by which it was brought about, were all predetermined by God; yet this did not, in the least, excuse the sin of those concerned in it, nor exempt them from punishment: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed;
who not only came to an untimely end, and died an infamous death by his own hands, but went to his own place, the place of everlasting torments allotted him: wherefore in ( Matthew 26:24 ) it is added, "it had been good for that man if he had not been born"; (See Gill on Matthew 26:24).

Luke 22:22 In-Context

20 καὶ τὸ ποτήριον ὡσαύτως ⸅ μετὰ τὸ δειπνῆσαι, λέγων · Τοῦτο τὸ ποτήριον ἡ καινὴ διαθήκη ἐν τῷ αἵματί μου, τὸ ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν ἐκχυννόμενον ]⸃.

21 πλὴν ἰδοὺ ἡ χεὶρ τοῦ παραδιδόντος με μετ’ ἐμοῦ ἐπὶ τῆς τραπέζης ·

22 ὅτι ὁ υἱὸς μὲν ⸃ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου κατὰ τὸ ὡρισμένον πορεύεται, πλὴν οὐαὶ τῷ ἀνθρώπῳ ἐκείνῳ δι’ οὗ παραδίδοται.

23 καὶ αὐτοὶ ἤρξαντο συζητεῖν πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς τὸ τίς ἄρα εἴη ἐξ αὐτῶν ὁ τοῦτο μέλλων πράσσειν.

24 Ἐγένετο δὲ καὶ φιλονεικία ἐν αὐτοῖς, τὸ τίς αὐτῶν δοκεῖ εἶναι μείζων.
