9 "Where do you want us to prepare for it?" they asked.
9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?
9 They said to him, "Where will you have us prepare it?"
9 They said, "Where do you want us to do this?"
9 So they said to Him, "Where do You want us to prepare?"
9 "Where do you want us to prepare it?" they asked him.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Luke 22:9
Commentary on Luke 22:7-18
(Read Luke 22:7-18)
Christ kept the ordinances of the law, particularly that of the passover, to teach us to observe his gospel institutions, and most of all that of the Lord's supper. Those who go upon Christ's word, need not fear disappointment. According to the orders given them, the disciples got all ready for the passover. Jesus bids this passover welcome. He desired it, though he knew his sufferings would follow, because it was in order to his Father's glory and man's redemption. He takes his leave of all passovers, signifying thereby his doing away all the ordinances of the ceremonial law, of which the passover was one of the earliest and chief. That type was laid aside, because now in the kingdom of God the substance was come.
