This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
31. τὴν ἔξοδον. ‘Departure’—a very unusual word for death, which also occurs in this connexion in 2Pe 1:15 (comp. exitus). The reading δόξαν, ‘glory,’ though known to St Chrysostom, is only supported by a few cursives. ἔξοδος is, as Bengel says, a very weighty word, involving His passion, cross, death, resurrection, and ascension. The same sense is found in Jos. Antt. IV. 8, § 2. See too Wis 3:2, “their departure is taken for misery.” Id. Luk 7:6. Comp. εἴσοδος in Act 13:24.

ἐν Ιερουσαλήμ. The murderers of the Prophets, Luk 13:33.
