Commentary on Luke 18:34

Theological / Devotional

Neither knew they. Luke dwells more than the other Synoptists upon the complete failure of the disciples to comprehend the sad truths Jesus endeavored to make clear to them. The reason was simply that their minds were filled with misconceptions as to the nature of the kingdom Jesus came to establish. They apparently dismissed from their minds whatever did not agree with their preconceived ideas on the subject (see DA 547, 548).
