Matthew 26:18
By saying “so-and-so” (Matthew 26:18) he does not make a name clear specifically, but obliquely indicates one of the holy. For the word also fits every holy person, who first receives the Lord’s disciples — evangelists and apostles leveling his soul beforehand — and then Christ himself, who will come not as one called but of his own accord, dwelling with the Holy Spirit beside the one with whom he sees the holy baptism. For that is what “the man carrying the jar of water” (Mark 14:13) makes clear, as Mark and Luke say (Luke 22:10).
Greek
Εἰπὼν τὸν δεῖνα οὐ δηλοῖ ὄνομα ἰδικῶς, ἀλλὰ πλαγίως δηλοῖ τινα τῶν ἁγίων· ἁρμόζει γὰρ καὶ ἐπὶ παντὸς ἁγίου ὁ λόγος, ὃς πρῶτον μὲν δέχεται τοὺς μαθητὰς τοῦ κυρίου, εὐαγγελιστάς, ἀποστόλους προομαλί ζοντας αὐτοῦ τὴν ψυχήν, εἶθ' οὕτως καὶ αὐτὸν τὸν Χριστόν, ὃς οὐ κληθεὶς ἀλλ' αὐτόματος ἥξει σὺν τῷ ἁγίῳ πνεύματι οἰκῶν παρ' ἐκείνῳ, παρ' ᾧ ὁρᾷ τὸ ἅγιον βάπτισμα· τοῦτο γὰρ δηλοῖ ὁ ἄνθρωπος ὁ τὸ "κε ράμιον βαστάζων τοῦ ὕδατος", ὥς φησιν Μᾶρκος καὶ Λουκᾶς.
