It implies a moment of realization or confrontation. In the context of <a href="/luke/13.htm">Luke 13</a>, Jesus is speaking about the final judgment and the separation between those who are truly His followers and those who are not. This moment of realization is significant in biblical eschatology, where individuals come to understand their standing before God.<p><b>‘We ate and drank with you’</b><br>Eating and drinking together in the ancient Near Eastern culture was a sign of fellowship and acceptance. This phrase suggests a superficial relationship with Jesus, where individuals participated in communal activities but lacked a deeper, personal commitment. In the Gospels, Jesus often shared meals with various groups, including sinners and tax collectors (e.g., <a href="/luke/5-29.htm">Luke 5:29-32</a>), highlighting His openness to all. However, this phrase warns against assuming that mere association with Jesus or participation in religious activities equates to true discipleship.<p><b>and you taught in our streets.’</b><br>Jesus' teaching in the streets signifies His public ministry and accessibility to the people. He often taught in open spaces, such as streets and synagogues, making His message available to all (e.g., <a href="/luke/4-14.htm">Luke 4:14-15</a>). This phrase underscores the widespread exposure to Jesus' teachings, yet it also highlights the tragedy of hearing His words without genuine acceptance or transformation. The reference to "our streets" indicates a familiarity with Jesus' presence and message, yet it serves as a caution against complacency and the assumption that proximity to the truth guarantees salvation.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/j/jesus_christ.htm">Jesus Christ</a></b><br>The central figure in this passage, Jesus is addressing the crowd, warning them about the importance of genuine faith and repentance.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_crowd.htm">The Crowd</a></b><br>The people Jesus is speaking to, who represent those who assume familiarity with Jesus is enough for salvation.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_streets.htm">The Streets</a></b><br>Symbolic of the public places where Jesus taught, representing the accessibility of His teachings to all.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_banquet.htm">The Banquet</a></b><br>An implied event, symbolizing the Kingdom of God and the final judgment where entry is determined by true relationship with Christ.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/f/familiarity_vs._relationship.htm">Familiarity vs. Relationship</a></b><br>Knowing about Jesus or being familiar with His teachings is not the same as having a personal relationship with Him.

They are, <span class= "ital">i.e.,</span> the representatives of those who hold office in the Church of God, yet have not truly submitted themselves to the guidance of the Divine Teacher. Here the words clearly point to actual companionship, to the hopes that men were building on the fact that they had once sat at meat, in the house of Publican or Pharisee, with the Prophet whom they acknowledged as the Christ. In its wider application it, of course, includes all who in any sense eat and drink with Him now in visible fellowship with His Church, and who rest their hopes of eternal life on that outward communion.<p><div class="vheading2"><a href="/commentaries/pulpit/luke/13.htm">Pulpit Commentary</a></div><span class="cmt_sub_title">Verses 26, 27.</span> - <span class="cmt_word">Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.

It was part of the reply to the question respecting the "fewness of the saved." The inquirer wished to know the opinion of the great Teacher on the exclusive right of Israel to salvation in the world to come, and this statement, describing salvation as something independent of all questions as to race, was the Master's reply. <span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/luke/13-26.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Greek</div><span class="word">Then</span><br /><span class="grk">Τότε</span> <span class="translit">(Tote)</span><br /><span class="parse">Adverb<br /></span><span class="str"><a href="/greek/strongs_5119.htm">Strong's 5119: </a> </span><span class="str2">Then, at that time.
