Expositor's Greek Testament (Nicoll)

Luke 23:51

οὐκ ἦν συγκατατεθειμένος, was not a consenting party, here only in N. T. Alford thinks the meaning is that he absented himself from the meeting. Let us hope it means more than that: present at the meeting, and dissenting from its proceedings. τ. βουλῇ καὶ τ. πράξει, their counsel and their subsequent action in carrying that counsel into effect. ὅς προσεδέχετο, etc.: this describes his religious character. Thus we have first social position, a counsellor; next ethical character, generous and just: finally religious character, one who was waiting for the Kingdom of God.
