The Greek word for "ashamed" is "ἐπαισχυνθῇ" (epaischynthē), which implies a sense of embarrassment or reluctance to be associated with someone. In the historical context of the early church, Christians faced persecution and social ostracism. This phrase challenges believers to stand firm in their faith, regardless of societal pressures or personal fears. It is a call to boldness in proclaiming one's faith in Christ, reflecting the importance of public confession and witness. and My words the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His glory and in the glory of the Father and of the holy angels Persons / Places / Events 1. Jesus (Son of Man)The central figure in this verse, referring to Himself as the "Son of Man," a title that emphasizes both His humanity and His divine authority. This title is rooted in Daniel 7:13-14, where the "Son of Man" is given dominion and glory. 2. The Father Refers to God the Father, highlighting the divine relationship and authority shared between Jesus and God. 3. Holy Angels These are the celestial beings who serve God and will accompany Jesus at His second coming, emphasizing the majesty and divine authority of the event. 4. The Coming in Glory This event refers to the second coming of Christ, a future time when Jesus will return in divine majesty to judge the world. 5. The Disciples and Followers of Jesus The immediate audience of Jesus' teaching, representing all believers who are called to live unashamedly for Christ. Teaching Points Boldness in FaithBelievers are called to live boldly for Christ, unashamed of their faith and His teachings, even in the face of societal pressure or persecution. Eternal Perspective Understanding the eternal consequences of being ashamed of Christ should motivate believers to prioritize their relationship with Him over worldly acceptance. Witnessing for Christ Sharing the Gospel and living out Christian values are essential aspects of not being ashamed of Jesus and His words. Anticipation of Christ’s Return The promise of Jesus' return in glory should inspire believers to live faithfully and expectantly, knowing that their faithfulness will be rewarded. Accountability and Encouragement Believers should hold each other accountable and encourage one another to stand firm in their faith, especially in challenging times.(26) In his own glory, and in his Father's.--The first part of the clause is peculiar, in this report of our Lord's words, to St. Luke, and presents a point of agreement with those recorded in John 17:5.Verse 26. - For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and in his Father's, and of the holy angels. Here follows the punishment in the world to come. It consists in the Judge's solemn award to the man who has succeeded in saving his life in this world. The award is, "Depart from me: I know you not." Of such a selfish soul, who here has loved his own ease, and has declined all self-sacrifice, will the Son of man, in the day of his glory, be justly ashamed. The suffering Messiah thus completed his vivid picture of himself. Not always was he to suffer, or to wear the robe of humiliation. The Despised and Rejected would assuredly return with a glory indescribable, inconceivable. His assertion, advanced here, that he will return as Almighty Judge, is very remarkable. In the parallel passage in St. Matthew (Matthew 16:13) it is put even more clearly. There Jesus asks his disciples, "Whom do men say that I, the Son of man, am?" In ver. 27 Jesus goes on to say, "The Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father, with his angels, and then he shall reward every man according to his works." The lesson was very clear. His own might surely be content. Only let them be patient. Lo! in the poor rejected Rabbi now before them, going to his bitter suffering and his death, they were looking really on the awful form of the Almighty Judge of quick and dead. These words, very dimly understood then, in days to come were often recalled by his hearers. They formed the groundwork of many a primitive apostolic sermon. Parallel Commentaries ...
