Commentary on Matthew 26:1
When Jesus had finished all these sayings—This transitional formula (Greek: etelesen, τελέσεν, 'completed') marks the conclusion of Jesus's fifth and final discourse in Matthew (chapters 24-25), the Olivet Discourse on eschatology and judgment. Matthew structures his Gospel around five major teaching blocks, echoing the Pentateuch's five books.The phrase he said unto his disciples introduces the Passion prediction that follows. Having taught about His future return in glory, Jesus now prepares them for the immediate reality of His suffering—the cross must precede the crown.
