The first would give expression to a positive hope, a hope that they will be able to hold on to in the dark days ahead, that the Kingly Rule of God already manifested by His presence (<span class='bible'>Mat 12:28<\/span>) will expand and be established in the coming days after His resurrection (<span class='bible'>Mar 9:1<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Act 28:31<\/span>) as He once more goes forward with them (<span class='bible'>Mat 28:20<\/span>). The second would refer to a guarantee of heavenly glory in the more distant future while ignoring the days to come when they will be proclaiming the Kingly Rule of God and participating in it. Pertinent to this is the fact that if this does not refer to the advancement of the Kingly Rule of God after His resurrection, it would mean that, according to all three Synoptics, in this final time together He made no reference to their immediate future (while doing so in great detail in John).<\/p>\n<p> Like many parabolic statements of Jesus each can take from this what he will. Of course, we do not necessarily have to see it as limited to one or the other.&nbsp; <em> We<\/em> &nbsp;may differentiate the Kingly Rule of God established on earth in the early church and continuing on through the centuries, from the Kingly Rule of God in Heaven, but it is questionable whether God does (see <span class='bible'>Heb 12:27<\/span>). To Him they are both one, and we are a colony of Heaven (<span class='bible'>Php 3:20-21<\/span>). Men are either under His Kingly Rule or they are not. So the question here is rather as to which aspect of His Kingly Rule is being the more emphasised. Is the emphasis on the fact that this is Jesus&rsquo; last cup of wine before the everlasting Kingly Rule arrives in the more distant future, thus indicating the certainty that He will soon die, but guaranteeing their hope eventually of an eternal future? Or is it a joyous assurance that they will soon be drinking &lsquo;new wine&rsquo; together again on the other side of the cross, because His imminent death will be followed by resurrection and the coming of the Holy Spirit in power, so that the great day when the Kingly Rule of God begins its forward march is not far hence?<\/p>\n<p> Certainly we must not play down the fact that the Kingly Rule of God commenced its marvellous advance from the resurrection onwards (and even before). In Mark it is advancing through the spreading of the word (<span class='bible'>Mar 4:26<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Mar 4:30<\/span>), will come with power within the lifetime of the disciples (<span class='bible'>Mar 9:1<\/span>), and must be received like a little child (<span class='bible'>Mar 10:15<\/span>). In Acts it is continually made quite clear that the Kingly Rule of God is advancing through the Apostles (<span class='bible'>Act 8:12<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Act 14:22<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Act 19:8<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Act 20:25<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Act 28:23<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Act 28:31<\/span>), and in <span class='bible'>Act 28:23<\/span>; <span class='bible'>Act 28:31<\/span> it is emphasised that this was by proclaiming the things concerning Jesus. See also <span class='bible'>Rom 14:17<\/span>; <span class='bible'>1Co 4:20<\/span>; in both of which the Kingly Rule of God is a present reality.<\/p>\n<p> Central to how we interpret this verse is what Jesus intended by &lsquo;not drinking of the fruit of the vine&rsquo;. If it was intended to indicate a long abstention it would suggest divine self sacrifice. Was it then an indication of continuing dedication as with the Nazirites (<span class='bible'>Num 6:3<\/span>), in say His intercession for His people (the priests also abstained from wine and strong drink &#8211; <span class='bible'>Lev 10:9<\/span>)? But why should such a dedication be necessary, especially as He has just been advocating the drinking of wine as a means of participating in Him? On the other hand if we see it as simply indicating the closeness of His death, it could then be a promise that within a short time the triumph of the Kingly Rule of God would be made manifest, as in <span class='bible'>Mar 9:1<\/span>; compare <span class='bible'>Mar 14:62<\/span>. We can compare how an officer in preparing his men for battle and wanting to indicate how close it was, might indicate it by declaring, &lsquo;this is my last drink. I will not have another drink until we have the victory is ours&rsquo;.<\/p>\n<p> For a more detailed examination of the idea behind this verse see our commentary on <span class='bible'>Luke 22<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p> End of note.<\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Commentary Series on the Bible by Peter Pett<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p><strong><em><span class='bible'>Mar 14:25<\/span><\/em><\/strong><strong>. <\/strong><strong><em>I will drink no more, <\/em><\/strong><strong>&amp;c.<\/strong> &#8220;From this instant I will no more drink of the passover-cup, nor have that commemorative and typical ordinance continued any longer in my church, than till it be suppressed and fulfilled (<span class='bible'>Luk 22:16<\/span>.) by the greatsalvationwhichIshallbringintothegospel-kingdomuponmy resurrection from the dead, and which is to be afterwards commemorated by a new use of wine in the supper that I have nowinstituted; nor will I so familiarly commune with you again, as I do now in this New Testament ordinance, till we shall have the most intimate fellowship together, in the more excellent entertainments of the heavenly state; which, for their superior and always fresh delight, may in the language of a festival be called <em>new wine.&#8221; <\/em>See Guyse, and the note on <span class='bible'>Mat 26:29<\/span>. <\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: Commentary on the Holy Bible by Thomas Coke<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p> 25 Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God. <strong> <\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><\/strong><\/p>\n<p> Ver. 25. <strong> I will drink no more<\/strong> ]    , &#8220;I will not, not, not drink;&#8221; so <span class='bible'>Heb 13:5<\/span> ; &#8220;I will not, not, not forsake thee.&#8221; Our Saviour here seemeth to allude to that grace cup (as they call it), after which they might not eat anything more till the day following. <\/p>\n<h4 align='right'><i><b>Fuente: John Trapp&#8217;s Complete Commentary (Old and New Testaments)<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n<p>I will = that I will.

The significance of this can be appreciated from the fact that the four cups of wine were interpreted in terms of the four-fold promise of redemption set forth in Exo 6:6-7: &rsquo;I will bring you out .&nbsp;.&nbsp;. I will rid you of their bondage .&nbsp;.&nbsp;. I will redeem you .&nbsp;.&nbsp;.
