Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Luke 7:1-10

Luke 7:1-10. When he had ended all his sayings Namely, those contained in the preceding chapter; in the audience of the people For though his discourse was immediately addressed to his disciples, he delivered it in the hearing of the people who stood round him in the plain; he entered into Capernaum Near which town the plain was in which he had preached. And a certain centurion’s servant was sick See some of the circumstances of the miracle explained on Matthew 8:5-10. And when he... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 7:1-17

BACK IN GALILEE48. Centurion’s servant; widow’s son (Matthew 8:5-13; Luke 7:1-17)Back in Capernaum, a Roman centurion asked Jesus to heal one of his servants who was dying. However, he did not expect Jesus to come to his house. Being an army officer, he operated in a system of authority where he needed only to give a command and it was carried out. He believed that Jesus carried the authority of God, and he needed only to say the word and the servant would be healed (Matthew 8:5-9; Luke... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 7:7

Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say the word, and my servant shall be healed.Such faith as that shown by the centurion is remarkable indeed.Say the word ... It is an attribute of God that his word alone is sufficient unto all things. "He spake, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created" (Psalms 148:5). Read the book of Genesis. God said, "Let there be light. And there was light"! It is amazing that this centurion understood this as being true of... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 7:8

For I also am a man under authority, having under myself soldiers: and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.Having in his possession the knowledge of how Jesus' word had wrought many cures, this centurion, like his fellow officer, had come to recognize God come in the flesh. As Ryle observed:A greater miracle of healing than this is nowhere recorded in the Gospels. Without even seeing the sufferer, without touch of... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 7:1-10

1. The healing of a centurion’s servant 7:1-10 (cf. Matthew 8:5-13)This incident shows Jesus extending grace to a Gentile through Jewish intermediaries. It would have helped Luke’s original Gentile readers appreciate that Jesus’ mission included them as well as the Jews. It is another case in which Jesus commended the faith of someone (cf. Luke 1:45; Luke 5:20). Luke continued to stress Jesus’ authority and the power of His word (cf. Luke 4:32; Luke 4:36). The similarities between this incident... read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 7:6-8

It seems unusual that the centurion would send for Jesus and then tell Him not to come. Apparently his humility moved him to do so (cf. Luke 3:16). He felt unworthy that Jesus should enter his house. He understood that Jews customarily avoided entering the homes of Gentiles because they considered them ritually unclean. He may also have wished to spare Jesus the embarrassment of entering a Gentile’s house since many Jews would have criticized Jesus for doing so. He even felt unfit (spiritually,... read more
