ルカによる福音書 17:11 JC

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Luke 17:11

(11) And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem.—This is the first distinct note of time in St. Luke’s narrative since Luke 9:51. It appears to coincide with the journey of which we read in Matthew 19:1, Mark 10:1, and is the commencement of the last progress through the regions in which our Lord had already carried on His ministry. The fact, peculiar to St. Luke, that it led Him through Samaria, apparently through that part of it which lay on the borders of Galilee, is obviously reported in... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Luke 17:1-37

Luke 17:3 Sir James Stephen describes Wilberforce's Practical View of Christianity as 'the expostulation of a brother. Unwelcome truth is delivered with scrupulous fidelity, and yet with a tenderness which demonstrates that the monitor feels the pain he reluctantly inflicts. It is this tone of human sympathy breathing in every page which constitutes the essential charm of this book.' Luke 17:3 This is certaine: That a Man that studieth Revenge, keepes his owne Wounds greene, which otherwise... read more

CHAPTER 17 1. Concerning Offenses and Forgiveness. (Luke 17:1-4 ) 2. Increase of Faith and Lowly Service. (Luke 17:5-10 ) 3. The Ten Lepers. (Luke 17:11-19 ) 4. Concerning the Kingdom and His Second Coming. (Luke 17:20-37 ) Luke 17:1-19 The story of the ten lepers is only found in Luke. All were cleansed by the power of God and the nine obeyed the Word of the Lord and went to the priests (Leviticus 13:1-59 ; Leviticus 14:1-57 ). But the tenth did not go but instead turned back and... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Luke 17:11

17:11 {6} And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.(6) Christ does good even to those who will be unthankful, but the benefits of God to salvation only profit those who are thankful. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 17:1-37

GRACE IN VIEW OF OFFENSES (vs.1-4) We have seen the grace of God clearly and beautifully declared, yet the world rejecting it. The Lord Jesus then spoke to His disciples. What should be their attitude in view of the reality of this marvelous grace, and in view of the fact that it was commonly despised? No matter how greatly grace may be abused, we are called upon to maintain it always in its fresh purity and truth in every personal relationship. Offenses (or causes of stumbling) will arise:... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 17:1-19

USE OF OPPORTUNITY In the last lesson thought was turned towards the heavenly calling of the disciples, of which earthly wealth is not necessarily a part. To the Jews, this was a great change, which we who, unlike them, never had a country on earth allocated to us, cannot well understand. For this reason our Lord now changes the character of His instruction, and shows in the parable of the unjust steward the results of the right use of opportunity, and in the story of the rich man and... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Luke 17:1-37

Faith Power Luk 17:6 You either believe these words, or you do not. Probably there is not a man who has not neglected them. Was there ever such a declaration made by human lips? How we hasten over verses of this range and quality, and get into easy reading as soon as we can! But here stands the solemn, incredible word. Words of this kind should not be read once only, for the ear may refuse them full admission, and the memory may perform quite a miracle of forgetfulness; we should say the... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 17:11-19

(11) And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. (12) And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: (13) And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. (14) And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go, shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed. (15) And one of them, when he saw that he was healed,... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 17:11-19

11-19 A sense of our spiritual leprosy should make us very humble whenever we draw near to Christ. It is enough to refer ourselves to the compassions of Christ, for they fail not. We may look for God to meet us with mercy, when we are found in the way of obedience. Only one of those who were healed returned to give thanks. It becomes us, like him, to be very humble in thanksgivings, as well as in prayers. Christ noticed the one who thus distinguished himself, he was a Samaritan. The others only... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 17:1-99

Luke 17 THE LATTER PART of the previous chapter, verse Luk_17:14 to the end, was spoken to the Pharisees: at the beginning of this chapter the Lord again addresses His disciples. The rich man had stumbled over his possessions into hell, and now the Lord tells His disciples that, the world being what it is, “offences,” or occasions of stumbling are inevitable. The great thing is to avoid being an “offence” to anyone else, to even the least important. The consequences are so serious that... read more
