Adam Clarke Bible Commentary
With desire I have desired - A Hebraism for, I have desired most earnestly. Our Lord's meaning seems to be, that, having purposed to redeem a lost world by his blood, he ardently longed for the time in which he was to offer himself up. Such love did the holy Jesus bear to the human race. This eucharistic passover was celebrated once, by way of anticipation, before the bloody sacrifice of the victim of salvation, and before the deliverance it was appointed to commemorate; as the figurative passover had been likewise once celebrated before the going out of Egypt, and the deliverance of God's chosen people. Quesnel.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary
With desire . . . desired--"earnestly have I longed" (as Gen 31:30, "sore longedst"). Why? It was to be His last "before He suffered"--and so became "Christ our Passover sacrificed for us" (Co1 5:7), when it was "fulfilled in the Kingdom of God," the typical ordinance thenceforth disappearing.
John Gill Bible Commentary
For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof,.... Of the passover, and which now, with the rest of the ceremonial law, was to be abolished: until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God; signifying, not that he should eat of it in the kingdom of God, where it would be fulfilled; seeing the passover was never more to take place, neither in the Gospel dispensation, nor in the heavenly glory; both which may be meant by the kingdom of God; but that he should never eat more of it in this ceremonial way, since it would have its accomplishment in each of those states: and it has been already fulfilled under the Gospel dispensation, which is often meant by the kingdom of God; in himself, who is the passover sacrificed for us, Co1 5:7 for the passover lamb was a type of Christ, and he is the sum and substance of that shadow, and the fulfilling end of that type; it had its accomplishment in him; of which See Gill on Co1 5:7 and it will also be fulfilled in the kingdom of heaven, or eternal glory, when there will be a perfect deliverance of the saints from sin, Satan, and the world; which the deliverance of the Israelites out of Egypt was typical of, commemorated in the passover; and therefore then will be sung the song of Moses, and the Lamb; and then will Christ, and his true followers, eat and drink together in his Father's kingdom, and spend an endless eternity in never fading joys and pleasures.

I Don't Have to Go to Church - 2
By Anton Bosch0PRO 27:17LUK 22:15ACT 2:11PE 5:8Anton Bosch emphasizes the importance of fellowship within the church for believers to reach their full potential, highlighting the need for face-to-face interaction over virtual connections. He explains that just as Jesus desired fellowship with His disciples despite their flaws, believers also need the support and protection that comes from being with other believers. Bosch stresses that it is through the often challenging interactions with fellow Christians that individuals are shaped into the image of Christ, learning patience, grace, forgiveness, and love. He warns against isolation and the dangers of drifting into deception without the accountability and confirmation found in a healthy church community.
The Flesh and Salvation
By Watchman Nee0LUK 22:15ROM 6:12ROM 13:14PHP 1:231TH 2:17TIT 2:121PE 2:11In the sermon 'Lusts', the preacher delves into the concept of epithumia, a term used in the Bible to describe strong desires or impulses, both good and evil, directed towards an object. While occasionally used in a positive sense, most often epithumia refers to perverted and unrestrained desires originating from our sinful nature. The sermon emphasizes the importance of believers resisting and fleeing from lusts, which can lead to spiritual decay and bondage, urging them to pursue righteousness, faith, and godliness instead. Various Bible verses and quotes are used to illustrate the detrimental effects of lusts and the need for believers to rely on God's grace to overcome them.
