| Jan 9, 2017 at 18:00 | comment | added | AncientSwordRage♦ | Is anyone else reading this as Anakin being the Jedi Knight? Thus Luke's task is to redeem Vader, allowing Anakin to 'defeat' Vader and the Emperor? At this point he's (Anakin) the only fully trained Jedi Knight in the galaxy. | |

| Jan 9, 2017 at 14:56 | comment | added | Null♦ | @DTagliaferri It was Anakin who fulfilled the prophecy, not Luke. | |
| Jan 9, 2017 at 14:31 | comment | added | D Tagliaferri | He probably realized that Luke was the one that was going to bring balance to the force. That is why Luke would succeed where others have failed. the prophecy. | |

| Jan 9, 2017 at 13:48 | comment | added | Neo Herakles | To me it sounds like Yoda's main concern was Luke turning to the Dark Side and had he fulfilled his training, he'd be way harder to corrupt, if it's to be taken at face value, it sounds really hopeful of him because waves of Jedi Masters, Knights and Padawans couldn't best Vader alone. | |

| Jan 9, 2017 at 13:32 | comment | added | M_the_C | It reads more like a minimum requirement to me. A fully trained Jedi Knight might not be able to defeat them, but it would be impossible for someone without the force as their ally. | |
