Luke 17:25

17:25 But first he must ¹  suffer many things and be rejected by this generation.

Luke 9:22

9:22 saying, “The Son of Man must suffer ²  many things and be rejected by the elders, ³  chief priests, and experts in the law, ⁴  and be killed, and on the third day be raised.” ⁵ 

Luke 20:17

20:17 But Jesus ⁶  looked straight at them and said, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’? ⁷ 

[17:25]  ¹ sn The Son of Man’s suffering and rejection by this generation is another “it is necessary” type of event in God’s plan (Luke 4:43; 24:7, 26, 44) and the fifth passion prediction in Luke’s account (9:22, 44; 12:50; 13:32-33; for the last, see 18:32-33).

[9:22]  ² 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.

[9:22]  ³ 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.

[9:22]  ⁴ tn Or “and scribes.” See the note on the phrase “experts in the law” in 5:21.

[9:22]  ⁵ 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.

[20:17]  ³ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[20:17]  ⁴ tn Or “capstone,” “keystone.” Although these meanings are lexically possible, the imagery in Eph 2:20-22 and 1 Cor 3:11 indicates that the term κεφαλὴ γωνίας (kefalh gwnia") refers to a cornerstone, not a capstone.
