luke 12:50 But I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it be accomplished! - Free Bible Online

luke 12:50 "But I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is accomplished!


      50. But . . . a baptism, &c.--clearly, His own bloody baptism, first to take place.
      how . . . straitened--not, "how do I long for its accomplishment," as many understand it, thus making it but a repetition of Lu 12:49; but "what a pressure of spirit is upon Me."
      till it be accomplished--till it be over. Before a promiscuous audience, such obscure language was fit on a theme like this; but oh, what surges of mysterious emotion in the view of what was now so near at hand does it reveal!

JFB.
