At the time of the banquet This phrase sets the scene for a significant event, a banquet, which in biblical times was a grand occasion often symbolizing the kingdom of God. The Greek word for "banquet" is "δεῖπνον" (deipnon), which refers to the main meal of the day, typically held in the evening. In the context of Luke 14, this banquet represents the eschatological feast, a future event where God gathers His people. Historically, banquets were not just about food but were social events that reinforced community bonds and status. In the biblical narrative, this banquet symbolizes the invitation to partake in the blessings of God's kingdom. he sent his servant to tell those who had been invited Come for everything is now ready (1) The attraction of property of different kinds, the absorbing delight of possessing earthly goods. (2) The occupations of business, the pleasure of increasing the store, of adding coin to coin, or field to field. (3) Social ties, whether at home or abroad, whether in general society or in the home circle; for even in the latter case it is too possible for family and domestic interests so completely to fill the heart as to leave no room there for higher and more unselfish aims, no place for any grander hopes than the poor narrow home-life affords. The primary application of all this was to the Jews of the Lord's own time. It was spoken, we must remember, to a gathering of the Rite of the Israel of his day. In the report of the servant detailing to the master the above-recorded excuses, it has been beautifully said, "we may hear the echo of the sorrowful lamentation uttered by Jesus over the hardening of the Jews during his long nights of prayer." The invitation to the feast was neglected by the learned and the powerful among the people. Greek [When it was]τῇ (tē) Article - Dative Feminine Singular Strong's 3588: The, the definite article.
