ルカの福音書 14:35 JCB

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 14:1-35

PARABLES OF GRACE THE SELFISH GUEST (Luke 14:1-14 ) We pass over verses 1-6 which set forth the occasion for the first parable. The lesson from this first parable is, that if in natural things such selfishness was unbecoming, how much more on the spiritual plane? (Compare 1 Peter 5:5-6 ; Isaiah 57:15 .) THE GREAT SUPPER (Luke 14:15-24 ) This was spoken on the same occasion as the other and in response to the remark of Luke 14:15 . Christ had spoken of reward at “the resurrection of the... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Luke 14:1-35

Out of Place Luk 14:7-11 There is a fitness of things. We all know it. We feel it, though we may not be able to explain it in words. There is an instinctive judgment about proportion, and social rightness, and personal action. There is a regularity in irregularity. Life is not so tumultuous as it seems. If we could see the action of all the lines of life we should see that beneath all the tumult and uproar, all the eccentricity and irregularity, there is a steady line, direct, inevitable,... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 14:27-35

And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple. For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? Lest haply, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him, Saying, This man began to build, and was not able to finish. Or what king, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and consulteth whether he be... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 14:25-35

25-35 Though the disciples of Christ are not all crucified, yet they all bear their cross, and must bear it in the way of duty. Jesus bids them count upon it, and then consider of it. Our Saviour explains this by two similitudes; the former showing that we must consider the expenses of our religion; the latter, that we must consider the perils of it. Sit down and count the cost; consider it will cost the mortifying of sin, even the most beloved lusts. The proudest and most daring sinner cannot... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 14:1-99

Luke 14 IN THE CLOSING verses of the previous chapter the Lord accepted His rejection and foretold its results for Jerusalem; yet He did not cease His activities in grace nor His teachings of grace, as the opening part of this chapter shows. The Pharisees wished to use their law of the sabbath as a cord wherewith to tie up His hands of mercy and restrain them from action. He broke their rope and showed that He would at least have as much mercy on the afflicted man as they were accustomed to... read more

Paul E. Kretzmann

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Luke 14:34-35

A final warning: v. 34. Salt is good; but if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith. shall it be seasoned? v. 35. It is neither fit for the land, nor yet for the dunghill; but men cast it out. He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. The very fact of self-renunciation brings out the genuineness of the discipleship, which must have the same seasoning power as salt. See Matthew 5:13; Mark 9:50. As long as salt is strong, it has value for seasoning; but if it becomes insipid (almost a... read more

Andwhosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple. 28For which of you, intending to build a tower,... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 14:25-35

the Cost of Discipleship Luke 14:25-35 Here we have our Lord’s use of the winnowing-fan. Amid the teeming crowds He knew that there were many light and superficial souls who had not realized the cost involved in discipleship. Mark the thrice-repeated words- cannot be my disciple. Our love must be greater than the ties of family affection, Luke 14:26 ; must be greater than our love for our own way, which must be nailed to the Cross, Luke 14:27 ; must be greater than our love of possessions... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 14:1-35

Nothing escaped the notice of Jesus. He saw the guests in the house, and their method of procedure in seeking the chief seats. As He watched, He enunciated two great truths of social application. First, He criticized those seeking precedence; and, second, He criticized a hospitality which was extended in the hope of recompense. One of the guests, moved by the word of the Master, exclaimed, "Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the Kingdom of God." In the parable that followed, the Lord... read more

Jesus Teaches Concerning Greed, Stewardship and the Need For Fruitfulness Under The Kingly Rule of God Centring on the Fact That He Will Make The Crooked Straight (12:1-14:35). As we have seen we may analyse this next Section from Luke 12:1 to Luke 14:35 into its separate parts as follows: a Instructions to disciples concerning facing up to eternity (Luke 12:1-12). b An example is given of covetousness concerning an inheritance which is followed by the parable of the fool who decided to... read more
