64 And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?
64 They blindfolded him and demanded, "Prophesy! Who hit you?"
64 They also blindfolded him and kept asking him, "Prophesy! Who is it that struck you?"
64 They put a blindfold on him and taunted, "Who hit you that time?"
64 And having blindfolded Him, they struck Him on the face and asked Him, saying, "Prophesy! Who is the one who struck You?"
64 They blindfolded him and said, "Prophesy to us! Who hit you that time?"
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Luke 22:64
Commentary on Luke 22:63-71
(Read Luke 22:63-71)
Those that condemned Jesus for a blasphemer, were the vilest blasphemers. He referred them to his second coming, for the full proof of his being the Christ, to their confusion, since they would not admit the proof of it to their conviction. He owns himself to be the Son of God, though he knew he should suffer for it. Upon this they ground his condemnation. Their eyes being blinded, they rush on. Let us meditate on this amazing transaction, and consider Him who endured such contradiction of sinners against himself.
