Luke 22:64

And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them. For the exposition, see the notes at ....

63-71 Those that condemned Jesus for a blasphemer, were the vilest blasphemers. He referred them to his second coming, for the full proof of his being the Christ, to their confusion, since they would not admit the proof of it to their conviction. He owns himself to be the Son of God, though he knew he should suffer for it. Upon this they ground his condemnation. Their eyes being blinded, they rush on. Let us meditate on this amazing transaction, and consider Him who endured such contradiction of sinners against himself....

EXPOSITION LUKE 23:1 THE LAST PASSOVER. LUKE 22:1, LUKE 22:2 _Short explanatory introduction._ LUKE 22:1 NOW THE FEAST OF UNLEAVENED BREAD DREW NIGH, WHICH IS CALLED THE PASSOVER. These words show that many of the readers for whom this Gospel was intended were foreigners, who were unacquainted with Jewish terms such as the "Passover." _Passover _(τὸ πάσχα, חסף) means, literally, "a passing." The feast so named commemorated the manner

AND WHEN THEY HAD BLINDFOLDED HIM,.... Or put a veil, or linen cloth over his eyes, as children do at play, to make themselves some sport with him: THEY STRUCK HIM ON THE FACE; on that part of it which was not covered, either with their hands, or with rods: AND ASKED HIM, SAYING, PROPHESY, WHO IS IT THAT SMOTE THEE? hereby deriding his prophetic office, and using such language as children do at blindman's buff; Matthew 26:68....

Luke 22:7. Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in. And ye shall say unto the good man of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover. And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. And he said unto them. With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: For I say unto you, I w...

THE TRIAL BEFORE THE SANHEDRIN (Mark 14:53 *, Matthew 26:56 *). There are several differences from Mk. Jesus is not taken into the hall at first, but remains in the courtyard, and is present while Peter denies Him, so that when the cock crowed the Lord turned and looked on Peter (Luke 22:61). The denial scene thus precedes the trial. The second challenge (Luke 22:58) is not from the first maid (Mk.), or another maid (Mt.), but from a man. Peter does not curse and swear. The ill-treatment of Jesus (by the guard, not by the court) also precedes the trial. There is no nocturnal trial; what Mk. and Mt. put immediately on the arrival of Jesus at t
