Today's Reading Luke 22.1-30

Luke 22 with Commentaries, verse by verse

Luke 22.1-2; Matthew 26.2-5; Mark 14.1-2, 10-11, at the Feast of the Unleavened Bread, also called the Passover, Judas agreed to betray Jesus for money (30 pieces of silver) Why would someone do something like this?

Arrangements were made for the last supper (Luke 22.7-13; Matthew 20.17-19; Mark 14.12-16. Jesus gave the disciples instructions in getting an upper room for the last supper. What Jesus told them, He knew it would happen even though they went out in faith to follow His instructions. When the Lord wants us to do a particular task for Him we should go in faith and obedience and joyfully follow his instructions.

Luke 22.14-34
Luke 22.21-23; Matthew 26.21-24; Mark 14.18021; John 13.21-30 Jesus said that the hand of the who is going to betray him is with him. He meant Judas Iscariot.

In verses 13-23, Jesus use the bread and the wine to symbolize His death. Wheat has to be crushed to make bread in the same way His body was broken for us. Wine is made from grapes which are crushed and fermented. In the same way His body was crushed and blood was shed for us.




Can you imagine on that night the disciples were blind and were concerned about who was the greatest. He presented the paradox of greatness to them: To be the greatest you have to be a servant!! This is not the way of the world.
