Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Luke 17:11-19

CRITICAL NOTESLuke 17:11. Samaria and Galilee.—This mention of Samaria before Galilee is perplexing, being the opposite direction to a journey to Jerusalem. Probably “through the midst” is to be understood as meaning “along the frontiers of.” Probably the incident here recorded occurred about the time and place referred to in Luke 9:56.Luke 17:12. Ten men.—If this miracle took place near a border village, we can understand how a Samaritan and Jews should be in the same company—all outcasts from... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Luke 17:15-18

Luke 17:15-18 The Ten Lepers. There are, speaking broadly, three chief reasons for unthankfulness on the part of man towards God I. An indistinct idea or an under-estimate of the service that He renders us. II. A disposition, whether voluntary or not, to lose sight of our Benefactor. III. The notion that it does not matter much to Him whether we acknowledge His benefits or not. Gratitude is our bounden duty, because it is the acknowledgment of a hard fact the fact that all things come of God;... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Luke 17:19

Luke 17:19 I. Of the unthankfulness which so seriously depresses and blights our whole modern Christian life, one reason, in many cases, is that we do not see our great Benefactor. I do not forget that some of us may feel true gratitude to those human friends who have been kind to us in years past, and who are now out of sight. But take men in the mass, and it is quite otherwise. Little by little, as the years pass, too many of us forget the benefits that we owe to the dead. The pressure, the... read more

DISCOURSE: 1553THE TEN LEPERS HEALEDLuke 17:17-18. And Jesus answering, said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.AS the miracles of our Lord were greatly diversified, so were the effects produced by them. Sometimes they were regarded with stupid indifference; at other times they were made effectual to the conversion of sinners: we have an instance of both in the history before us—I.Consider the various... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Luke 17:1-37

Chapter 17Now He turns again to His disciples.Then said he unto his disciples, It is impossible but that offenses will come ( Luke 17:1 ):You cannot help if you're living in this world, you're going to have offenses come your way. There are going to be people who will seek to put stumbling stones in your path. And that's what the word offense here; it's a stone of stumbling, a scandalon. It's impossible to live your life without having these things happen. These offenses, as people challenge... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Luke 17:1-37

Luke 17:1 . It is impossible but that offences will come. Such as the disciples had just seen, the contempt and derision evinced by the pharisees; but woe to the man, and woe to the nation which shall despise the gospel. At the same time be of a forgiving temper; pardon on apology, and do not think that by practising the higher graces of true religion, in overcoming evil with good, that you merit any thing as a debt of your heavenly Father. By rendering evil for evil you would multiply... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Luke 17:11

11 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. Ver. 11. He passed through Samaria and Galilee ] Albeit he had forbidden his apostles to pass into those parts till after his death; yet he manifested by many arguments that the gospel belonged, and should shortly be preached, to those poor pagans, that as yet sat in darkness and in the shadow of death. read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Luke 17:12

12 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: Ver. 12. Stood afar off ] For so they were charged, Leviticus 13:45-46 , as also to cover their lips, for fear of infecting others. read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Luke 17:13

13 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. Ver. 13. And they lifted up their voices ] These sought themselves only in their prayers, as do hypocrites; and nought esteemed the love of Christ. So did those that fasted to themselves, Zechariah 7:6 ; more to get off their chains than their sins. Ephraim "is an empty vine, he beareth fruit to himself," Hosea 10:1 . The Church keeps her fruit for her Beloved. read more
