Luke 22:16 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.— That is, "until the deliverance of all the faithful saints from the bondage of sin, is accomplished in the gospel dispensation; a deliverance typified by that of our fathers from the Egyptian bondage, to keep up the memory of which the passover was instituted." The particle until, used here and Luke 22:18 does not imply, that after the accomplishment of the salvation of the faithful, our Lord was to eat the passover; it was a Hebrew form of expression, signifying that the thing mentioned was no more to be done for ever. See on Matthew 1:25 and Mark 14:25.
