LUKE 22:31 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:”
Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift all of you as wheat — Simon, Simon: the personal address with the double name communicating urgency. Satan has asked (exētēsato, demanded, claimed): the Satan who demanded Job is now demanding Simon. To sift all of you as wheat: the violent, disorienting process of separating grain from chaff.
