ルカの福音書 24:31-38 JCB

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:37

But they were terrified and affrighted ,.... At the sight of him, and at his sudden appearance among them, without being heard, or seen before, and the doors shut and bolted; they could not tell how to account for it, that it should be Jesus himself risen from the dead in his own body, though they had been just speaking of his resurrection, and had had a confirmation of it from the disciples that went to Emmaus: and supposed that they had seen a spirit ; that what they saw was a phantom,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:38

And he said unto them, why are ye troubled ,.... Who had more reason to rejoice, and be glad, as they were when they knew that it was Jesus: and why do thoughts arise in your hearts ? whether what they saw was Jesus, or an apparition, which gave them a great deal of trouble and uneasiness, and filled them with fright and terror; as it was, and is usual with persons when they fancy they see a spirit, or an apparition; see Matthew 14:26 . read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:31

Their eyes were opened - But we are not to imagine that he administered the holy eucharist at this time; there is not the most distant evidence of this. It was a mere family meal, and ended before it was well begun. They knew him - His acting as father of the family, in taking, blessing, and distributing the bread among them, caused them to recollect those lips which they had often heard speak, and those hands by which they had often been fed. Perhaps he also threw off the disguise which... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:32

Did not our heart burn within us - His word was in our heart as a burning fire, Jeremiah 20:9 . Our hearts waxed hot within us, and while we were musing the fire burned, Psalm 39:3 . In some such way as this the words of the disciples may be understood: but there is a very remarkable reading here in the Codex Bezae; instead of καιομενη , burned, it has κεκαλυμμενη , veiled; and one of the Itala has, fuit excaecatum , was blinded. Was not our heart veiled (blinded) when he conversed... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:34

Saying, The Lord is risen indeed - The meaning here is, that these two disciples found the apostles, and those who were with them, unanimously testifying that Christ had risen from the dead. It is not the two disciples to whom we are to refer the word λεγοντας , saying; but to the body of the disciples. See the note on Mark 16:12 . read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:35

And they - The two disciples who were just come from Emmaus, related what had happened to them on the way, going to Emmaus, and how he had been known unto them in the breaking of bread, while supping together at the above village. See on Luke 24:31 ; (note). read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:36

And as they thus spake - While the two disciples who were going to Emmaus were conversing about Christ, he joined himself to their company. Now, while they and the apostles are confirming each other in their belief of his resurrection, Jesus comes in, to remove every doubt, and to give them the fullest evidence of it. And it is ever true that, wherever two or three are gathered together in his name, he is in the midst of them. Peace be unto you - The usual salutation among the Jews. May... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:37

And supposed that they had seen a spirit - But if there be no such thing as a disembodied spirit, would not our Lord have shown them their error? Instead of this, he confirms them in their opinion, by saying, A spirit hath not flesh and bones as you see me have, Luke 24:39 ; therefore he says, handle me and see me. They probably imagined that it was the soul only of our blessed Lord which they saw; but they were soon fully convinced of the identity of his person, and the reality of his... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:31

Verse 31 Luke 24:31.And their eyes were opened. By these words, we are taught that there was not in Christ any metamorphosis, or variety of forms, by which he might impose on the eyes of men, (as the poets feign their Proteus,) but that, on the contrary, the eyes of beholders were mistaken, because they were covered; just as, shortly afterwards, he vanished from the eyes of those very persons, not because his body was in itself invisible, but because God, by withdrawing their rigor, blunted... read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:32

Verse 32 32.Did not our heart burn within us? Their recognition of Christ led the disciples to a lively perception of the secret and hidden grace of the Spirit, which he had formerly bestowed upon them. For God sometimes works in his people in such a manner, that for a time they are not aware of the power of the Spirit, (of which, however, they are not destitute,) or, at least, that they do not perceive it distinctly, but only feel it by a secret movement. Thus the disciples had formerly indeed... read more
