Contextual Overview

18 And it happened as He was praying alone, the disciples were with Him. And He questioned them, saying, Whom do the crowds say Me to be? 19 And answering, they said, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and others that some prophet of the ancients has risen again. 20 And He said to them, But whom do you say Me to be? And answering, Peter said, The Christ of God. 21 And strictly warning them, He ordered no one to tell this, 22 saying, The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day. 23 And He said to all, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily. And let him follow Me. 24 For whoever desires to save his life, he will lose it. But whoever loses his life for My sake, this one will save it. 25 For what is a man profited gaining the whole world but destroying himself or suffering loss? 26 For whoever is ashamed of Me and My Words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that one when He comes in His glory, and that of the Father, and of the holy angels. 27 But truly I say to you, There are some of those standing here who in no way shall taste of death until they see the kingdom of God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For whosoever shall be ashamed of me,.... Of my person and offices, of me, as the Messiah, Saviour, and Redeemer, of my grace, righteousness, blood, and sacrifice:

and of my words; of the doctrines of the Gospel, one and another of them. In Mark, it is added, "in this adulterous and sinful generation"; having a peculiar respect to the people of the Jews, and the age in which Christ lived; but is true of any other people and age in which men live:

of him shall the son of man be ashamed when he shall come in his own glory; in the glory of his human nature, when his glorious body, as now, in heaven, shall be seen by all; and in the glory of his office, as mediator, and the judge of all the earth; and in the glory of his divine nature, which will appear in the resurrection of the dead, in the gathering of all nations before him, in separating one sort from another, and in passing and executing the definitive sentence on them; particularly the glory of his omnipotence and omniscience will be very conspicuous:

and in his Father's; which is the same with his own, as he is the Son of God, and the brightness of his glory; and which, as mediator, he has from him, and will be the object of the saints' vision to all eternity;

and of the holy angels; who shall attend him at his second coming, and be employed in various offices under him. The Syriac version renders, these last clauses as they are in Matthew 16:27 in the glory of his Father, with his holy angels; Matthew 16:27- :.

Matthew 16:27- :.
