Luke
Chapter 18
{Jesus'
Prophecy of His Tribulations and Resurrection}
18:31``Then
{Jesus} 'taking aside with Himself' {paralambano}
the
Twelve . . . saying face to face with them,
"Behold
{pay attention}
we
are going up to Jerusalem,
and
everything that has been written in the past
with
the result that it stands written forever {grapho -perfect tense}
by
the prophets
about
the Son of Man {huios anthropos} . . .
will
be accomplished/completed {teleo}.
18:32-33``For
He {referring to Himself}
will
be 'handed over'/'betrayed over' {paradidomi}
to
the Gentiles,
and
will be mocked {empaizo}
and
'insolently mistreated' {hubrizo}
and
spat on {emptuo}; 18:33``
and,
having flogged Him severely,
they
will 'inflict mortal death'/'kill' Him
{apokteino - the generic word for killing someone}.
And
on the third day . . . He will rise {anistemi}."
18:34``But
the Twelve understood {suniemi}
none
of these things . . .
and
this saying was being hidden from them . . .
and
they absolutely did not {ouk} grasp/
'know
from study or experience' {ginosko}
what
Jesus 'meant'/'was saying'.
{Note: Either this 'mystery doctrine' was not ready to be comprehended by the students/disciples of Jesus in a supernatural fashion, or maybe, because of the use of the word 'ginosko' we are to understand that these students are still growing in their knowledge of our Lord and Savior . . . and do not yet have the 'doctrine in their soul from study' to understand the meaning of the doctrine of the resurrection.}
{Healing
a Blind Man}
18:35``And
it came to pass {new subject}
as
He {Jesus} approached Jericho,
a
blind man kept sitting by the roadside begging.
18:36``Now,
hearing a crowd passing by,
he
kept on asking
'what
was going on - wishing {for something good}'
{tis touto eien - optative -4th class condition of desire}.
18:37``Then
they told him {the blind man},
"Jesus
of Nazareth is passing nearby {parerchomai}."
18:38``And
he 'called out with joy' {boao} saying,
"Jesus,
son {huios} of David . . .
'have
mercy on'/'graciously help' me!"
{eleeo - imperative mood - a request/order}
18:39``And
those who were in front {proago} kept on rebuking him,
telling
him to be possibly be quiet {siopao - subjunctive mood},
but
he kept on shouting out {krazo} even more, "Son of David,
'have
mercy on'/'graciously help' me!"
{eleeo
- imperative mood - a request/order}
18:40``So
Jesus, having come to a standstill,
ordered
him {the blind man} to be brought face to face with Him.
Now
after the man came near,
He
{Jesus} interrogated {eperotao} him, 18:41``
saying,
"What do you desire/wish, that I might do for you?"
Now
he replied, "Lord {indicating the blind man is a believer},
that
I might 'recover my sight'/'see again' {anablepo}."
18:42``And,
Jesus said to him,
"Recover
your sight {anablepo} . . . your faith
has
'made you well
with
results that will last forever' {sozo - perfect tense}."
18:43``And
immediately {parachrema}
he
'regained his sight'
and
'kept on following as a student' {akoloutheo} Him {Jesus},
'praising'/'assigning
the glory to' {doxazo} God.
And
all the people, having seen it,
they
too gave praise/'laudatory discourse' {ainos} to God.
