Luke 10:22 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 10:22

All things are delivered to me of my Father
In some ancient copies, and in the Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions, before these words, are read, "and turning to his disciples he said, all things"

and no man knoweth who the Son is;
what is his name, his nature, his perfections and glory; and how he is the Son of God, his only begotten Son:

but the Father;
who begat him, and whose own, and proper Son he is:

and who the Father is;
what are his perfections, purposes, grace, greatness, mind, and will:

but the Son;
who is of him, and lay in his bosom:

and he to whom the Son will reveal him:
in himself, by his Spirit; (See Gill on Matthew 11:27).

Luke 10:22 In-Context

20 However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

21 At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.

23 Then he turned to his disciples and said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.

24 For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.”
