Luke 9:22

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 

Luke 24:21

24:21 But we had hoped ⁵  that he was the one who was going to redeem ⁶  Israel. Not only this, but it is now the third day since these things happened.

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.

⁵ tn The imperfect verb looks back to the view that they held during Jesus’ past ministry.

⁶ sn Their messianic hope concerning Jesus is expressed by the phrase who was going to redeem Israel.
