Luke 9:22

saying, “The Son of Man must suffer ¹  many things and be rejected by the elders, ²  chief priests, and experts in the law, ³  and be killed, and on the third day be raised.” ⁴ 

Ge 3:15; Ps 22:1-31; Ps 69:1-36; Isa 53:1-12; Da 9:26; Zec 13:7; Mt 16:21; Mt 17:12,22; Mr 8:31; Mr 9:31; Mr 10:33,34; Lu 9:44; Lu 18:31-34; Lu 24:7,26; Ac 4:25-28; Ac 13:27-29; 1Co 15:4; 1Pe 1:11

¹ sn The necessity that the Son of Man suffer is the particular point that needed emphasis, since for many 1st century Jews the Messiah was a glorious and powerful figure, not a suffering one.

² sn Rejection in Luke is especially by the Jewish leadership (here elders, chief priests, and experts in the law), though in Luke 23 almost all will join in.

³ tn Or “and scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 5:21.

⁴ sn The description of the Son of Man being rejected…killed, and…raised is the first of six passion summaries in Luke: 9:44; 17:25; 18:31-33; 24:7; 24:46-47.
