Luke 12:49

Verse 49 of 59

Scripture focus

I am come to send fire on the earth; and what will I, if it be already kindled?

Luke 12:49 — KJV

Theological / Devotional

Send fire. The Greek stresses “fire.” For verses 49-53 see on Matthew 10:34-36.

What will I? The meaning of the remainder of verse 49 is not clear. One possible translation is: “How I wish that it were already kindled!”
