What is the meaning of Luke 10:22? All things have been entrusted to Me by My Father “ All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me ” (Matthew 28:18). The Father has literally placed every realm of power, wisdom, and judgment in Jesus’ hands (John 3:35; Hebrews 1:2–3). • Salvation: Jesus alone can forgive sins (Luke 5:24). • Sovereignty: He upholds the universe by His word (Colossians 1:16-17). • Final judgment: “The Father judges no one, but has assigned all judgment to the Son” (John 5:22). When the Lord says “all things,” there are no exceptions. Believers can therefore trust every promise He makes and obey every command He gives. No one knows who the Son is except the Father The Father’s perfect knowledge of the Son highlights their unique, eternal relationship (John 5:20). • Humanity can recognize Jesus’ works, but only the Father fully comprehends His divine nature and mission (John 8:28-29). • This exclusive knowledge underscores Jesus’ deity; He is more than a teacher—He is God the Son (John 1:1-2). Because the Father alone knew the Son in this fullest sense, the Incarnation was a revelation of heavenly realities otherwise inaccessible to us. No one knows who the Father is except the Son Just as only the Father fully knows the Son, only the Son fully knows the Father (John 6:46). • Jesus reveals the invisible God (John 14:6-9). • Outside of Christ, attempts to define God drift into speculation; in Christ, the Father’s character is displayed in living color (Colossians 1:15). This mutual exclusivity confirms the unity and equality within the Godhead while showing that genuine knowledge of God is found solely in Christ. and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him Revelation is a gift. “The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers,” but God “has shone in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ” (2 Corinthians 4:4-6). • Salvation is by grace; Jesus sovereignly opens eyes (John 1:18; Acts 16:14). • Those He reveals the Father to become children of God, able to cry, “Abba, Father” (Romans 8:15). • Our response is humble gratitude and eager proclamation so others may encounter the same revelation (2 Corinthians 5:20). summary Luke 10:22 declares Jesus’ supreme authority, His unique intimacy with the Father, and His gracious role as the sole revealer of God to humankind. Everything rests in His hands; true knowledge of the Almighty flows only through Him, and receiving that revelation is a merciful gift He lovingly grants to all who believe. |
