Sections marked generated are written from the data on this page rather than by a named author. Everything else — the lexicon entries, the cross references, the manuscript readings, the counts — is quoted from its source unchanged.
Context — The Parable of the Unworthy Servantgenerated
Luke 17:8 is part of a parable where Jesus teaches His disciples about the nature of servanthood. He emphasizes that a servant's duty is to serve his master without expecting thanks or reward. This teaching challenges the disciples to adopt a humble attitude in their service to others, reflecting the character of Christ himself. The surrounding verses further clarify the expectations of a servant in the kingdom of God, as seen in Luke 17:7 and Luke 17:10.

The Key Word — ἑτοίμασον, hetoimazōgenerated
The verb ἑτοιμάζω (hetoimazō) means to prepare or make ready. It is an aorist imperative, indicating a command to take immediate action. The focus is on the act of preparation for service, highlighting the urgency and importance of being ready to meet the needs of others.
In this context, the command to prepare signifies the expectation that a servant should prioritize the master's needs above their own. This reflects the broader theme of servanthood that Jesus teaches throughout the Gospels.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as ‘Prepare my meal and dress yourself to serve me while I eat and drink; and afterward you may eat and drink’. This aligns closely with the KJV and ASV, which emphasize the servant's duty to prepare and serve.
However, the WEB and BBE offer slightly different phrasings, focusing on the act of preparing and serving in a more conversational tone. The differences highlight how translations can vary in their approach to conveying the same message.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main finite verb in this verse is ἐρεῖ, he will say, which governs several phrases: an imperative phrase instructing the servant to prepare, a participial phrase describing how the servant should gird himself, and a clause indicating when the servant may eat and drink.
The structure emphasizes the sequence of actions expected of the servant, illustrating the relationship between the master and servant in terms of duty and expectation.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
ἑτοιμάζω appears in the Septuagint, where it translates the Hebrew word כּוּן (H3559), meaning to establish or prepare. This connection underscores the continuity of the theme of preparation in both the Old and New Testaments.
In the LXX, this term often relates to preparing for significant events or rituals, reinforcing the idea that preparation is a vital aspect of service to God and others.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Luke 17:8 shows that when a servant comes in from working, he is expected to prepare the master's meal and serve him before taking care of his own needs. This illustrates the importance of servanthood and the responsibilities that come with it.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
To prepare the meal means to get everything ready for the master to eat, showing the servant's duty to prioritize the master's needs.

This teaching encourages us to serve others selflessly, reflecting the attitude of Christ in our interactions and responsibilities.
Girding oneself symbolizes readiness for action, indicating that the servant must be prepared to serve at all times.
Reflection Questionsgenerated
- In what ways can I serve others selflessly in my daily life?
- How can I cultivate a mindset of humility and readiness to serve?
- What are some practical examples of preparing to meet the needs of those around me?
- How does understanding my role as a servant change my perspective on service?
The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
Bede comments on this verse, focusing on the servant's role and the implications of girding oneself for service.
And gird yourself and serve me while I eat and drink. To gird oneself is to restrict one's humble mind from all wandering thoughts by which the steps of duties are usually impeded.Early Church Fathers on Luke 17 →
And after this, you will eat and drink. After, he says, I have been delighted by the work of your preaching, and refreshed by the feasts of your compunction, then finally you will pass and recline,Early Church Fathers on Luke 17 →

Ver. 8. Gird thyself and serve me] It implies, first, readiness; secondly, nimbleness, handiness, and handsomeness. A loose, discinct, and diffluent mind is unfit to serve God.

Read John Trapp on Luke 17 →Charles John Ellicott1819–1905Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(8) Gird thyself, and serve me.—Better, minister to me. The words receive a fresh significance if we connect them with Luke 12:37, of which they are, as it were, the complement. There the Master promises that He will gird Himself, and minister to His disciples. Here He tells them that He too requires a service. They must give Him the meat and the drink of seeing that His Father’s will is done on earth (John 4:32; John 4:34), and then they too shall be sharers in His joy. Yet another aspect of the same truths is found in the later promise of the Lord of the Churches to the servant who watches for His coming, “I will sup with him, and he with Me” (Revelation 3:20).

Every translation is an argument about meaning made by someone who had to commit to one. These two were made while the Greek was still a living language, and they are the oldest opinions we have about what this verse says.
et non dicat ei : Para quod cnem, et præcinge te, et ministra mihi donec manducem, et bibam, et post hæc tu manducabis, et bibes ?

The Greek word ἀλλά (alla) is an adversative particle, meaning 'but' or 'otherwise.' It is derived from the neuter plural of ἄλλος and is used to introduce opposition or contrast in sentences. In the New Testament, it often appears in contexts that involve negation or exceptions, such as in Matthew 5:15 and John 16:2. The lexicons note its stronger adversative force compared to δέ.

The Greek word οὐχί (ouchi) is an intensified form of οὐ (ou), meaning 'not' or 'by no means.' It is commonly used in negative sentences and questions where an affirmative response is expected, appearing 54 times in the New Testament. The entries indicate that it serves to strengthen negation, often in contexts of denial or contradiction.
οὐχί, i. 4- οὐ, ποί, but stronger [ef. νυνί ad init. ] ; a. in simple negative sentences, by no means, not at all, [A. V. not]: Jn. xiii. 10 μα a πὶν 22,51 Conve) 9. νὴ 1: foll. by ἀλλά, 1 Co. x. 29; 2 Co. x. 18 (LT Tr WH οὐκ); in denials or contradictions [A.

οὐχί. For this strong form of οὐ (οὐκ, οὐχ), which is found 54 times in the NT and generally in questions (cf. Robertson Gr. p. 1406), we may compare the Alexandrian Erotic Fragment P Grenf I. 1/25 (ii/B.c.) εὐθὺ δεῖ καὶ διαλύεσθαι" οὐχὶ διὰ τοῦτο φίλους ἔχομεν, of κρινοῦσι τίς ἀδικεῖ ; ‘‘ for we must soon be reconciled ; to what end else have we friends, who shall judge which of us two is inthe wrong?” (Ed.).

In dealing with synonyms of the N. T. we plainly need not concern ourselves with such earlier, or even contemporary, uses of the words which we are discriminating, as lie altogether outside of the N. T. sphere, when these uses do not illustrate, and have not affected, their Scriptural employment. It follows from this that all those contemptuous uses of λαλεῖν as to talk at random, as one ἀθυρόστομος, or with no door to his lips, might do; of λαλιά, as chatter («Kpacia λόγου ἄλογος, Plato, Defin. 416)—for I cannot believe that we are to find this at John iv. 42—may be dismissed and set aside. The antithesis in the line of Eupolis (Meineke, /ragm. Com. Gr. p. 174), Λαλεῖν ἄριστος, ἀδυνατώτατος λέγειν, does little or nothing to illustrate the matter in hand. The distinction which indeed exists between the words may in this way be made clear. There are two leading aspects under which speech…

αὐτός is a pronoun meaning 'self' or 'the same,' used to emphasize distinction or opposition.

τίς is an interrogative pronoun meaning 'who,' 'which,' or 'what,' used in both direct and indirect questions. It can function as a substantive, adjective, or adverb, appearing in various contexts throughout the New Testament, such as in Matthew 3:7 and John 18:23. The neuter form τί also means 'what' or 'which.' There are instances where τίς may be used interchangeably with other pronouns like ποῖος.

The Greek word δειπνέω (deipneō) means to dine or take the chief meal of the day. It is derived from the noun δεῖπνον and is used in various contexts, including literal meals and metaphorical references in the New Testament, such as in Luke and Revelation. The lexicons indicate a consistent meaning across sources, focusing on the act of dining.
δειπνέω, -ῶ
(< δεῖπνον, q.v.),
[in LXX: Pr 23:1 (לחם), To 7:8 8:1, Da LXX 11:27 * ;]
to take the chief meal of the day, to dine, to sup: Lk 17:8 22:20 (WH, br., R, mg. omits), I Co 11:25; metaph., Re 3:20.†
δειπνέω, -@: [fut. δειπνήσω}; 1 aor. ἐδείπνησα; (δεῖmvov); to sup: Lk. xvii. 8; xxii. 20 [WI reject the whole pass., see their App.]; 1 Co. xi. 25; in an allegory, δειπνήσω per αὐτοῦ, I will make him to share in my most intimate and blissful intercourse: Rev. iii. 20.
δειπνέω. Interesting examples of the word occur in invitations to dinner or to a wedding-feast, e.g. P Oxy I. 110 (ii/A.D.) ἐρωτᾷ σε Χαιρήμων δειπνῆσαι eis κλείνην τοῦ κυρίου Σαράπιδος ἐν τῷ Σαραπείῳ αὔριον, ἥτις ἐστὶν τε, ἀπὸ ὥρας 8, **Chaeremon requests your company at dinner at the table of the lord Sarapis in the Serapeum to-morrow, the 15th, at 9 o'clock”: similarly 7b. 111 (iti/A.p.), III. 523 (1i/A.D.), VI. 926 (iii/A.pD.), P Fay 132 (iii/A.p.). The hour, which corresponds to our 3 p.m., illustrates the elasticity of a term which will answer to our ‘* lunch” or ** supper ”’ on occasion : it relieves some of the difficulty in Lk 1416, where an ἄριστον seems demanded by the details. In P Oxy VI. 927 (iii/A.D.) we have the same formula and the same hour, but els γάμους stands in the place of δειπνῆσαι. It is curious to find our phrase ‘‘ to dine out”’ paralleled —BGU IV. 1141°° (c.…

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word περιζώννυμι (i.e., *perizōnnumi*) means to gird or fasten around oneself, often in preparation for action. It appears in various forms, including passive and middle voice, and is used in the New Testament to describe actions like girding oneself for service (e.g., Lk 12:37). The term is built from the prefix περί (around) and the root ζώννυμι (to gird).

(v. Veitch, s.v.)
[in LXX chiefly for חגר, also for אזר, etc.;]
to gird (c. dupl. acc., as ὁ περιζωννύων με δύναμιν, Ps 17 (18):32): pass., αἱ ὀσφύες περιεζωσμέναι, Lk 12:35; π. ζώνην χρυσῆν, Re 1:13 15:6 (but v. infr.).

διακονέω (diakoneo) means to serve or minister, often in the context of providing assistance or care for others. It can refer to serving at a table or fulfilling the duties of a deacon, as seen in verses like Matthew 20:28 and 1 Timothy 3:10. The word is derived from the noun διάκονος (diakonos), meaning 'deacon' or 'servant.'

The Greek word ἐσθίω (i.e., *esthio*) means 'to eat' and is used in various contexts, both literal and figurative. It is built from the root associated with eating and can imply consuming food in a regular manner or in a more metaphorical sense, such as devouring or squandering. The New Testament uses this term frequently, with a notable emphasis on eating in communal or ritual contexts.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

Drink
The drinks of the Hebrews were water, wine, “strong drink,” and vinegar. Their drinking vessels were the cup, goblet or “basin,” the “cruse” or pitcher, and the saucer.
To drink water by measure (Ezek. 4:11), and to buy water to drink (Lam. 5:4), denote great scarcity. To drink blood means to be satiated with slaughter.
The Jews carefully strained their drinks through a sieve, through fear of violating the law of Lev. 11:20, 23, 41, 42. (See Matt. 23:24. “Strain at” should be “strain out.”)

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.
καί, a conj., and; the most freq. by far of all the particles in the N. T. [On its uses see W. § 53, 3sqq.; B. 361 (310) sqq., and ef.

It serves as a copulative i.e. to connect (Lat. et, atque, Germ. und) ; 1. it connects single words or terms: a. univ., as of Φαρισαῖοι καὶ Σαδδουκαῖοι, Mt. xvi. 1; ὁ θεὸς καὶ πατήρ, he who is God and Father (see θεός, 3); ἐν καρδίᾳ καλῇ καὶ ἀγαθῇ, Lk. viii. 15; πολυμερῶς καὶ πολυτρόπως, ΗΘ}. 1. 1; it is repeated before single terms, to each of which its own force and weight is thus given: ἡ υἱοθεσία καὶ ἡ δόξα καὶ ai διαθῆκαι καὶ ἡ νομοθεσία καὶ ἡ λατρεία καὶ αἱ ἐπαγγελίαι, Ro. ix. 4 ; ἁγία καὶ δικαία καὶ ἀγαθή, Ro. vii. 12; add, Mt. xxiii. 23; Lk. xiv. 21; Jn. xvi. 8; Acts xv. 20, 29; xxi. 25; Heb. ix. 10; Rey. v. 12; xviii. 12 sq.; ef.

The Greek word μετά (transliterated as meta) is a preposition that can mean 'with,' 'among,' or 'after,' depending on the case it governs (genitive, accusative, or sometimes dative). In the New Testament, it is used to indicate association or companionship, as in Mark 1:29, and to denote sequence in time or place, as seen in Hebrews 9:3. The entries do not show significant disagreement.
μετά, [on its neylect of elision before proper names beginning with a vowel, and before sundry other words (at least in Tdf.’s text) see Tdf. Proleg. p. 95; cf. WH. Intr. p- 146°; W.§ 5,1a.; B. p. 10], a preposition, akin to μέσος (as Germ. mit to Mitte, mitten) and hence prop. in the midst of, amid, denoting association, union, accompaniment; [but some recent etymologists doubt its kinship to μέσος ; some connect it rather with ἅμα, Germ. sammt, ef.

The Greek word οὗτος (i.e., *houtos*) is a demonstrative pronoun meaning 'this' or 'this one.' It is used to refer to something nearby or recently mentioned, often with a connotation of contempt in certain contexts. In the New Testament, it appears in various forms, such as in Matthew 3:17 and John 1:15, and can also serve to emphasize or clarify a subject.

The Greek word ἐσθίω (i.e., *esthio*) means 'to eat' and is used in various contexts, both literal and figurative. It is built from the root associated with eating and can imply consuming food in a regular manner or in a more metaphorical sense, such as devouring or squandering. The New Testament uses this term frequently, with a notable emphasis on eating in communal or ritual contexts.

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

Drink
The drinks of the Hebrews were water, wine, “strong drink,” and vinegar. Their drinking vessels were the cup, goblet or “basin,” the “cruse” or pitcher, and the saucer.
To drink water by measure (Ezek. 4:11), and to buy water to drink (Lam. 5:4), denote great scarcity. To drink blood means to be satiated with slaughter.
The Jews carefully strained their drinks through a sieve, through fear of violating the law of Lev. 11:20, 23, 41, 42. (See Matt. 23:24. “Strain at” should be “strain out.”)

The word can be used for emphasis or contrast, particularly in the New Testament, as seen in verses like Matthew 26:64. It also appears in various dialects and has enclitic forms.
