ルカによる福音書 5:32 JC

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 5:17-39

TEACHING FORGIVENESS OF SIN (Luke 5:17-26 ) Comparing this with Mark 2:1 , we find it took place in Capernaum, and possibly in the house in which our Lord dwelt (Matthew 9:1 ). What proof it contains of the deity of Christ. JESUS’ EARTHLY MISSION (Luke 5:27-32 ) Levi, as we saw in Mark 2:0 , is Matthew whose faith in following Jesus is more remarkable than that of Peter, for he had more to relinquish. He soon showed his faith further by his works (Luke 5:29 ). But though he made “a great... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 5:27-39

(27) And after these things he went forth, and saw a publican, named Levi, sitting at the receipt of custom: and he said unto him, Follow me. (28) And he left all, rose up, and followed him. (29) And Levi made him a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of publicans and of others that sat down with them. (30) But their scribes and Pharisees murmured against his disciples, saying, Why do ye eat and drink with publicans and sinners? (31) And Jesus answering, said unto them,... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 5:27-39

27-39 It was a wonder of Christ's grace, that he would call a publican to be his disciple and follower. It was a wonder of his grace, that the call was made so effectual. It was a wonder of his grace, that he came to call sinners to repentance, and to assure them of pardon. It was a wonder of his grace, that he so patiently bore the contradiction of sinners against himself and his disciples. It was a wonder of his grace, that he fixed the services of his disciples according to their strength... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 5:1-99

Luke 5 IN THE PREVIOUS chapter we saw the Lord Jesus coming forth in the power of the Spirit to announce the grace of God, and being confronted at once with man’s rejection. We saw that nevertheless He pursued His way of grace unmoved by it. This chapter now presents us with a series of lovely pictures, illustrating what grace accomplishes in the case of those who receive it. Four men come before us Peter, the leper, the paralytic, Levi and a different feature marks each. They follow one... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 5:27-39

Feasting and Fasting Luke 5:27-39 Matthew in his Gospel says nothing of this great feast; the Spirit of God saw that it should not be forgotten. “When saw we thee an hungered, and fed thee?” Matthew 25:37 . Advertise yourself and God will leave you unnoticed. You will have had your reward. Be content to do things, as Jesus appointed, and Matthew 6:4 will follow. Let us not cling to the broken bottle-skins of the past, whether they be out-worn ceremonies, creeds or formulations of truth. Let... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 5:1-39

Four of Jesus' disciples, already called into the relation of discipleship, are here called more definitely to service. Taking command of their vessel, to which in all probability they had returned without warrant, they found Him able to direct them in an earthly calling, and by so doing lifting them to the position from where henceforth, they would catch men. The coming of the leper revealed an advance beyond the common crowd in his attitude toward Jesus. The leper believed in Jesus' power... read more

James Nisbet

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Luke 5:32

CHRIST’S CALL‘I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.’ Luke 5:32 The call of Levi and the incidents associated with it are full of interest and instruction. Note:— I. The power of Christ’s calling grace.—Levi belonged to a class who were a very proverb for wickedness. Yet even he at once ‘left all, rose up, followed’ Christ, and became a disciple. II. Obedience to Christ’s call brings joy.—Levi ‘made a great feast in his own house’; and ‘there is joy in the presence of... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 5:27-32

The Call of Levi. Jesus Is The Great Physician Who Can Heal The Outcast (5:27-32). A narrative revealing that He had come to forgive sins is now followed by a passage revealing that he has come to call sinners to that forgiveness. Indeed He was going to shock the Pharisees and scribes even more by calling a hated outcast to follow Him. This man was a tax collector, a customs officer, and every eyebrow in Galilee would be raised when he was called. They did not know that he would go on to write... read more
