SUMMARY OF LUKE 22:
The Rulers Take Steps to Slay the Lord. Judas Bargains to Betray Christ. The Passover Prepared. The Lord's Supper Instituted. The Traitor Pointed Out. Exhortation to the Apostles.
The feast of unleavened bread. The Passover, so called because no leavened bread was eaten during the passover week.
22:2 The chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him. Tried to devise means to accomplish this without exciting the multitude. See Mt 26:1-5.

22:7,8 Then came the day of unleavened bread. Josephus calls both the fourteenth and fifteenth of Nisan, the day of unleavened bread. I have followed Neander, Tischendorf, Winer, Alford, Ellicott, Erasmus, Grotius, Calvin and others in the view that the Lord's passover was eaten one day before the Jews ate theirs, and that he died about the time that the paschal lambs were slain for the Jews' passover. See notes on Joh 18:28 19:31.

22:21-23 Him that betrayeth me. The incident concerning the betrayal mentioned in these verses occurred before the Lord's Supper was eaten (Mt 26:21). It seems probable, from Joh 13:21-35, that Judas left before the supper On this passage, see notes on Mt 26:21-25.

22:24 There was also a strife among them. This contention probably arose while they were taking seats for the paschal meal, each seeking the chief place. It was rebuked by the Lord washing their feet (Joh 13:3-5). See notes on Mt 18:1-4.
22:25 Benefactors. This very title has often been conferred on Gentile rulers, as Ptolemy Euergetes, Ptolemy, the Benefactor, one of the kings of Egypt.
22:26 Ye [shall] not [be] so. Greatness shall be sought by serving. He is greatest who serves the world best.
22:29 I appoint unto you a kingdom. A kingdom to be secured, not by conquering and ruling, but humility, self-denial, and service. He that humbleth himself shall be exalted (Mt 18:14).
22:30 That ye may eat and drink, etc. Thus shall the apostles be entitled to eat at the Lord's table in the kingdom, and to
sit on thrones, etc. They attained these thrones, but they are spiritual, rather than temporal. See PNT Mt 19:28.

22:36 But now. Now has come a time of trial when all will be against you.
He that hath no sword, let him... buy one. Not to be taken literally, but a striking way of saying that enemies upon every side will assail them.
22:37 He was reckoned among the transgressors. This, quoted from Isa 53:12, was about to be fulfilled in him.
22:38 Here [are] two swords. How they come to be in their possession is not told.
It is enough. This is a dismissal of the subject, not a warrant for their use. That was rebuked when Peter resorted to one (Mt 26:52-54).
