A.T. Robertson Commentary Luke 13:33

"Nevertheless I must go on my way to-day and to-morrow and the [day] following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem." — Luke 13:33 (ASV)

The day following (τη εχομενη). See Ac 20:15. The same as the third day in verse 32. A proverb.

It cannot be (ουκ ενδεχετα). It is not accepted, it is inadmissible. A severely ironical indictment of Jerusalem. The shadow of the Cross reaches Perea where Jesus now is as he starts toward Jerusalem.
