Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 2:25-38

10. Simeon and Anna (Luke 2:25-38)In separate incidents, two people at the temple recognized Jesus as the promised Messiah. The first was a man named Simeon. Unlike most Jews, Simeon had the spiritual insight to understand the sort of person the Messiah would be. He acknowledged that Jesus was the promised Messiah, and that he would bring glory to Israel and salvation to the Gentiles (Luke 2:25-32).Having praised God for the coming of Jesus, Simeon turned to address Mary. He saw that one day... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Luke 2:30-32

Luke 2:30-32. Mine eyes have seen, &c.— Simeon, being well acquainted with the prophetic writings, knew from them that the Messiah was to be the Author of a great salvation, which, because it was planned by God, this pious man very properly refers to God;—thy salvation. He knew likewise that this salvation was not designed for the Jews only, but for all mankind; therefore he says, Luk 2:31 that it was prepared by God, to set before the face of all people, as the glorious object of their... read more

II. THE BIRTH AND CHILDHOOD OF JESUS 1:5-2:52This section contains material unique in Luke. The only repeated statement occurs in Luke 2:39 and Matthew 2:23. Other unique features are the way Luke alternated the reader’s attention between John and Jesus, and the joy that several individuals expressed (Luke 1:46-55; Luke 1:68-79; Luke 2:14; Luke 2:29-32). [Note: For studies of the structure of this passage, see Robert C. Tannehill, The Narrative Unity of Luke-Acts , 1:15-20; R. E. Brown, The... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 2:29-32

As with the Magnificat and the Benedictus, this hymn also has a Latin name: the Nunc Dimittis. Simeon acknowledged that Messiah had come. He felt ready to die since God had fulfilled His promise to Simeon (Luke 2:26). This statement may imply that he was an old man, but it may just be a way of saying that Simeon felt this was the greatest experience in his life. Simeon properly regarded God as his sovereign and himself as God’s servant (Gr. doulos). He equated the Messiah with God’s salvation.... read more
