For as yet they knew--that is, understood.
not the scripture that he must rise again from the dead--In other words, they believed in His resurrection at first, not because they were prepared by Scripture to expect it; but facts carried resistless conviction of it in the first instance to their minds, and furnished a key to the Scripture predictions of it. |

| They knew not the scripture - Viz. Psa 16:9, Psa 16:10 : Thou wilt not leave my soul in hell - כי לא תעזב נפשי לשאול ki lo taazob naphshi l'sheol - For thou wilt not abandon my life to the grave, nor suffer thy Holy One to see corruption. It was certainly a reproach to the disciples that they had not understood this prophecy, when our Lord had given them often the most direct information concerning it. Christ had referred to the history of Jonah, Mat 12:40, which was at once the type and the proof of his own resurrection. However, this ingenuous confession of John, in a matter so dishonorable to himself, is a full proof of his sincerity, and of the truth of his narration. |
16 Men [435] and brethren [80], this [5026] scripture [1124] must [1163] needs have been fulfilled [4137], which [3739] the Holy [40] Ghost [4151] by [1223] the mouth [4750] of David [1138] spake before [4277] concerning [4012] Judas [2455], which [3588] was [1096] guide [3595] to them that took [4815] Jesus [2424].
34 The people [3793] answered [611] him [846], We [2249] have heard [191] out of [1537] the law [3551] that [3754] Christ [5547] abideth [3306] for [1519] ever [165]: and [2532] how [4459] sayest [3004] thou [4771], [3754] The Son [5207] of man [444] must [1163] be lifted up [5312]? who [5101] is [2076] this [3778] Son [5207] of man [444]?
14 And [2532] as [2531] Moses [3475] lifted up [5312] the serpent [3789] in [1722] the wilderness [2048], even so [3779] must [1163] the Son [5207] of man [444] be lifted up [5312]:
44 And [1161] he said [2036] unto them [846], These [3778] are the words [3056] which [3739] I spake [2980] unto [4314] you [5209], while [5607] I was yet [2089] with [4862] you [5213], that [3754] all things [3956] must [1163] be fulfilled [4137], which [3588] were written [1125] in [1722] the law [3551] of Moses [3475], and [2532] in the prophets [4396], and [2532] in the psalms [5568], concerning [4012] me [1700].
26 Ought [1163] not [3780] Christ [5547] to have suffered [3958] these things [5023], and [2532] to enter [1525] into [1519] his [846] glory [1391]?
7 Saying [3004], [3754] The Son [5207] of man [444] must [1163] be delivered [3860] into [1519] the hands [5495] of sinful [268] men [444], and [2532] be crucified [4717], and [2532] the third [5154] day [2250] rise again [450].
37 For [1063] I say [3004] unto you [5213], that [3754] this [5124] that is written [1125] must [1163] yet [2089] be accomplished [5055] in [1722] me [1698], And [2532] he was reckoned [3049] among [3326] the transgressors [459]: for [2532] [1063] the things concerning [4012] me [1700] have [2192] an end [5056].
25 But [1161] first [4412] must [1163] he [846] suffer [3958] many things [4183], and [2532] be rejected [593] of [575] this [5026] generation [1074].
22 Saying [2036], [3754] The Son [5207] of man [444] must [1163] suffer [3958] many things [4183], and [2532] be rejected [593] of [575] the elders [4245] and [2532] chief priests [749] and [2532] scribes [1122], and [2532] be slain [615], and [2532] be raised [1453] the third [5154] day [2250].
31 And [2532] he began [756] to teach [1321] them [846], that [3754] the Son [5207] of man [444] must [1163] suffer [3958] many things [4183], and [2532] be rejected [593] of [575] the elders [4245], and [2532] of the chief priests [749], and [2532] scribes [1122], and [2532] be killed [615], and [2532] after [3326] three [5140] days [2250] rise again [450].
54 But how [4459] then [3767] shall the scriptures [1124] be fulfilled [4137], that [3754] thus [3779] it must [1163] be [1096]?
10 For thou wilt not leave [05800] my soul [05315] in hell [07585]; neither wilt thou suffer [05414] thine Holy One [02623] to see [07200] corruption [07845].
47 But [1161] if [1487] ye believe [4100] not [3756] his [1565] writings [1121], how [4459] shall ye believe [4100] my [1699] words [4487]?
40 For [1063] as [5618] Jonas [2495] was [2258] three [5140] days [2250] and [2532] three [5140] nights [3571] in [1722] the whale's [2785] belly [2836]; so [3779] shall the Son [5207] of man [444] be [2071] three [5140] days [2250] and [2532] three [5140] nights [3571] in [1722] the heart [2588] of the earth [1093].
10 For thou wilt not leave [05800] my soul [05315] in hell [07585]; neither wilt thou suffer [05414] thine Holy One [02623] to see [07200] corruption [07845].
9 Therefore my heart [03820] is glad [08055], and my glory [03519] rejoiceth [01523]: my flesh [01320] also shall rest [07931] in hope [0983].
