24:26 Wasn’t ¹  it necessary ²  for the Christ ³  to suffer these things and enter into his glory?”

Lukas 24:46

24:46 and said to them, “Thus it stands written that the Christ ⁴  would suffer ⁵  and would rise from the dead on the third day,

Kisah Para Rasul 2:24

2:24 But God raised him up, ⁶  having released ⁷  him from the pains ⁸  of death, because it was not possible for him to be held in its power. ⁹ 

[24:26]  ¹ tn This Greek particle (οὐχί, ouci) expects a positive reply.

[24:26]  ² sn The statement Wasn’t it necessary is a reference to the design of God’s plan (see Luke 24:7). Suffering must precede glory (see Luke 17:25).

[24:26]  ³ tn Or “Messiah”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.”

[24:26]  sn See the note on Christ in 2:11.

[24:46]  ⁴ tn Or “Messiah”; both “Christ” (Greek) and “Messiah” (Hebrew and Aramaic) mean “one who has been anointed.”

[24:46]  ⁵ tn Three Greek infinitives are the key to this summary: (1) to suffer, (2) to rise, and (3) to be preached.

[2:24]  ⁶ tn Grk “Whom God raised up.”

[2:24]  ⁷ tn Or “having freed.”

[2:24]  ⁸ sn The term translated pains is frequently used to describe pains associated with giving birth (see Rev 12:2). So there is irony here in the mixed metaphor.

[2:24]  ⁹ tn Or “for him to be held by it” (in either case, “it” refers to death’s power).
