ルカの福音書 18:38-39 JCB

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Luke 18:39

(39) They which went before—viz., those who were in advance of Jesus; probably, if we suppose Mark 10:32 to represent the usual order, not the disciples, but a portion of the crowd. On “the Son of David,” see Note on Matthew 9:27. read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Luke 18:1-43

Luke 18:1 That saying with others did encourage one to prayer. Then the Tempter again laid at me very sore, suggesting That neither the Mercy of God, nor yet the Blood of Christ did at all concern me, nor could they help me for my sin; therefore it was but vain to pray. Yet, thought I, I will pray. But, said the Tempter, your sin is unpardonable. Well, said I, I will pray. It is to no boot, said he. Yet, said I, I will pray. ... So I went to prayer to God.... And as I was thus before the... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Luke 18:39

18:39 {12} And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, [Thou] Son of David, have mercy on me.(12) The more snares and hindrances that Satan lays in our way, even by those who profess Christ’s name, so much the more ought we to go forward. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 18:1-43

GRACE PRODUCING PERSISTENT PRAYER (vs.1-8) This section connects with the subjects of chapter 17. We have seen in the four sections of that chapter that the gospel of grace produces in the believer a spirit that is (1) forgiving; (2) humble; (3) thankful; and (4) watchful. To complete this list, a prayerful spirit is now added. Nothing should at any time discourage our consistency in prayer. The parable the Lord used as to this is most instructive. The judge He spoke of was in no way a... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 18:31-43

REJECTION At this point we enter the period of Christ’s formal rejection by His nation with which we have been made acquainted in the other synoptics, and hence we pass on to that which is peculiar to Luke, the conversion of Zaccheus (Luke 19:1-10 ) Jesus never declined an invitation to hospitality, but this is the first instance in which He ever invited himself (Luke 19:5 ). Murmured at for lodging with a “winner,” He justified the act (Luke 19:9-10 ) and then spake the parable of the pounds... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Luke 18:1-43

The Danger of Riches Luk 18:24 Is it easy then for poor people to enter into the kingdom of God? Jesus Christ does not say so. It is always difficult to enter into the kingdom of heaven. It is not entered by wealth, nor is it entered by poverty; for wealth and poverty are incidental and external circumstances. Let us fix our attention upon the fact that this was probably the first rich applicant at the door of the kingdom of Christ. There have been many since; familiarity may have made some... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 18:35-43

(35) And it came to pass, that, as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging: (36) And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant? (37) And they told him, That Jesus of Nazareth passeth by. (38) And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me. (39) And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace; but he cried so much the more, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me. (40) And Jesus stood and commanded him to be... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 18:35-43

35-43 This poor blind man sat by the wayside, begging. He was not only blind, but poor, the fitter emblem of the world of mankind which Christ came to heal and save. The prayer of faith, guided by Christ's encouraging promises, and grounded on them, shall not be in vain. The grace of Christ ought to be thankfully acknowledged, to the glory of God. It is for the glory of God if we follow Jesus, as those will do whose eyes are opened. We must praise God for his mercies to others, as well as for... read more

Frank Binford Hole

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 18:1-99

Luke 18 IN SPEAKING THE parable, with which this chapter opens, the Lord was continuing the same line of thought, as is shown by His application of the parable in verses Luk_18:7 and 8. When the kingdom arrives it will mean judgment for the evil-doers, but the days just before its arrival will mean tribulation for saints. Their resource will be prayer. Even an unjust judge will be moved to right the wrongs of a widow, if she is sufficiently importunate; so the saint may continue waiting upon... read more
