Greek Commentary for Luke 13:27
This blunt statement cuts the matter short and sweeps away the flimsy cobwebs. Acquaintance with Christ in the flesh does not open the door. Jesus quotes Psalm 8:9 as in Matthew 7:23, there as in the lxx, here with παντες εργαται αδικιας pantes ergatai adikias there with οι εργαζομενοι την ανομιαν hoi ergazomenoi tēn anomian But αποστητε apostēte (second aorist active imperative) here, and there αποχωρειτε apochōreite (present active imperative).

Sit down at table. Jesus casts his thought into a familiar Jewish image. According to the Jewish idea, one of the main elements of the happiness of the Messianic kingdom was the privilege of participating in splendid festive entertainments along with the patriarchs of the nation. With this accords Luke 13:30, in allusion to places at the banquet. Compare Luke 14:7-9; Matthew 23:6. [source]
