V.10-13 All through the Old Testament, the serious-minded men tried to find out the secret of the Christ Who was to come. Even the prophets read over what they had written, in order to try to find out the meaning of the words about the sufferings of Christ. They could understand that this coming One was to be great, but couldn’t understand the part about His sufferings. (Read Luke 24:25-26, 44, 4625Then he said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken: 26Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory? (Luke 24:25‑26)
44And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. (Luke 24:44)
46And said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: (Luke 24:46)). Even the angels tried to find out. Does this not thrill us!
V.14-16 The believer has a new life to live, he leaves the old life behind him.
V.18-19 “Redeemed” means to be “bought back.” The Lord Jesus bought us back for God. The cost was His precious blood.
V.22 “Obeying” is mentioned for the third time in this chapter. If we obey, we will love all other believers, for they are God’s children.
