Contextual Overview

18On another occasion, the twelve cowboys came to Jesus as he prayed alone. When they walked up, he asked them, "Who does everyone think I am?" 19"Some say you are John the Baptizer," one of 'em said. "Others claim you are Elijah or one of the other great cowboys of God from long ago." 20"What about y'all?" he asked them. "Who do you think I am?"Pete said, "You are God's Top Hand. The one who will gather us and save us from the coming brush fire." 21Jesus told all of 'em not to tell anyone what Pete had just said. 22He then told 'em, "God's Top Hand will suffer terribly at the hands of the religious institution. They will kill him, but three days later he will come over the hill, riding back from the dead." 23And then he spoke up for all to hear. "If you want to ride with me, you've got to quit riding for yourself, sacrifice your own desires, and follow me. 24If you try to protect your own life, you'll lose it, but if you are willing to lose your life for me, you will find it. 25What does a man gain if he has everything in the world, but loses himself in the process? 26If you are ashamed of my brand, then God's Top Hand will shut the gate to God's outfit on you. 27I'm telling you straight that there are some here now who will not die before they have seen God's outfit."

Cross-References

Romans 9:5
Abe, Isaac, and Jake are their ancestors, and Jesus himself was an Israelite by all human standards and nature. But he wasn't just any ordinary human. He was God himself and rules over all of God's spread.
Hebrews 11:16
But no, they set their eyes on something bigger and better that was just over the final hill—their forever home in heaven. And it is there that God is waiting on his hands. He ain't ashamed to call them his crew and he has something amazing waiting on them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For whosoever shall be ashamed of me,.... Of my person and offices, of me, as the Messiah, Saviour, and Redeemer, of my grace, righteousness, blood, and sacrifice:

and of my words; of the doctrines of the Gospel, one and another of them. In Mark, it is added, "in this adulterous and sinful generation"; having a peculiar respect to the people of the Jews, and the age in which Christ lived; but is true of any other people and age in which men live:

of him shall the son of man be ashamed when he shall come in his own glory; in the glory of his human nature, when his glorious body, as now, in heaven, shall be seen by all; and in the glory of his office, as mediator, and the judge of all the earth; and in the glory of his divine nature, which will appear in the resurrection of the dead, in the gathering of all nations before him, in separating one sort from another, and in passing and executing the definitive sentence on them; particularly the glory of his omnipotence and omniscience will be very conspicuous:

and in his Father's; which is the same with his own, as he is the Son of God, and the brightness of his glory; and which, as mediator, he has from him, and will be the object of the saints' vision to all eternity;

and of the holy angels; who shall attend him at his second coming, and be employed in various offices under him. The Syriac version renders, these last clauses as they are in Matthew 16:27 in the glory of his Father, with his holy angels; Matthew 16:27- :.

Matthew 16:27- :.
