Berean Study Bible

But from now on
This phrase marks a pivotal transition in the narrative of Jesus' life and mission. The Greek word for "now" (ἄρτι, arti) indicates an immediate change in status or condition. Historically, this moment signifies the shift from Jesus' earthly ministry to His exaltation and glorification. It is a turning point where Jesus, having completed His mission on earth, is about to enter into His heavenly reign. This transition is not just temporal but also theological, as it underscores the fulfillment of messianic prophecies and the inauguration of a new covenant.

the Son of Man
The title "Son of Man" (ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου, ho huios tou anthrōpou) is deeply rooted in Jewish apocalyptic literature, particularly in Daniel 7:13-14, where it describes a heavenly figure endowed with authority and dominion. Jesus frequently uses this title to refer to Himself, emphasizing both His humanity and His divine authority. In the context of Luke 22:69, it highlights Jesus' role as the prophesied Messiah who bridges the gap between God and humanity. This title also serves to remind believers of Jesus' identification with human suffering and His ultimate victory over it.

will be seated
The act of being seated (καθίζω, kathizō) is significant in biblical and historical contexts, symbolizing authority, completion, and rest. In ancient times, a king or judge would sit to render decisions, indicating their sovereign power. For Jesus, being seated signifies the completion of His redemptive work and His enthronement as King and Judge. This imagery assures believers of Christ's sovereign rule and His active intercession on their behalf.

at the right hand
The phrase "at the right hand" (ἐκ δεξιῶν, ek dexiōn) is a position of honor and authority. In biblical symbolism, the right hand is associated with power and favor. In the context of the ancient Near Eastern royal court, sitting at the right hand of a king signified a place of highest honor and shared authority. For Jesus, this position affirms His divine status and His unique relationship with the Father. It assures believers of His supreme authority over all creation and His role as the mediator between God and humanity.

of the power of God
The "power of God" (τῆς δυνάμεως τοῦ Θεοῦ, tēs dynameōs tou Theou) encapsulates the omnipotence and sovereign will of God. This phrase emphasizes that Jesus' authority is not self-derived but is granted by God the Father. It reflects the fulfillment of God's redemptive plan through Jesus Christ. Historically, this power is demonstrated through Jesus' resurrection and ascension, affirming His victory over sin and death. For believers, it is a source of hope and assurance that God's purposes will ultimately prevail, and His kingdom will be established in fullness.

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(69) Hereafter shall the Son of man sit.--Literally, From this time forth shall the Son of Man be sitting. In St. Luke's shorter record the immediate sequence of this confession upon an apparent refusal to answer seems hardly consistent. The narrative of St. Matthew shows that the change of purpose or of action was caused by the solemn adjuration of the high priest, which no longer left Him the alternative of silence. The form of the answer, too, is somewhat altered. Not "ye shall see," but simply "shall be sitting," as though the dominant thought in St. Luke's mind in reporting the words was that even in the agony and death that were so soon to come on Him, our Lord found Himself glorified (John 12:23). The Cross was-His Throne, and while hanging on it, He was in spirit sitting at the right hand of the Father.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 69. - Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God. Jesus decided to put an end to this weary and useless trial, and supplied his judges with the evidence they were seeking to extort from him. The Master's words would recall to the teachers of Israel, sitting as his judges, the words of their loved prophet Daniel (Daniel 7:13, 14). These solemn words of his were, and they perfectly understood them as such, a claim on the part of the Prisoner who stood before them - a direct claim to Divine glory.
