Contextual Overview

7 And the first day of unleavened bread was come, when the passover was to be killed. 8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat it. 9 And they said to him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? 10 And he said to them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, a man will meet you bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth. 11 And say to the master of the house, The master saith to thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? 12 And he will shew you a large upper-room furnished: there make ready. 13 And they went, and found as he had said to them. And they made ready the passover. 14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. 15 And he said to them, With desire have I desired to eat this passover with you, before I suffer. 16 For I say to you, I will not eat thereof any more, till it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine,.... That is, wine; see the blessing at the passover cup in the notes on the preceding verse:

until the kingdom of God shall come; with power, as in Mark 9:1 in the resurrection of Christ from the dead; in his exaltation and session at God's right hand; in the pouring forth of the Spirit on the apostles; in the conversion of great multitudes, both in Judea, and in the Gentile world; in the destruction of the Jews; in the latter day glory; and in the ultimate state of happiness and bliss in the world to come. The Ethiopic version reads, "until I drink it new in the kingdom of God"; as in Mark 14:25.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Luke 22:18. I will not drink of the fruit of the vine — That is, before the time of another passover, the Holy Ghost shall descend, the Gospel of the kingdom be established, and the sacramental supper shall take place of the paschal lamb; for in a few hours his crucifixion was to take place. Matthew 26:29; Matthew 26:29.
