Contextual Meaning

Luke"s narrative joins this event with the preceding one thematically. However the other Synoptics indicate that this conversation took place sometime later ( Matthew 17:22; Mark 9:31). Luke"s construction has the effect of contrasting the wonder of the people with their rejection that resulted in Jesus" sufferings and death. Luke also stressed the fulfillment of divine purpose in Jesus" passion.
