路加福音 10:23-24 RCUVTS

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 10:24

The prophets typically looked forward to the fulfillment of the things that they predicted (1 Peter 1:10-12). Kings probably represent the most important people of their day. Even they, with all their advantages, could not see and hear what Jesus’ humble disciples could. What they saw was the signs of the advent of Messiah, and what they heard was the good news that the kingdom was at hand.Jesus’ teaching in this pericope glorified the privilege of being a disciple of His. Too often the... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 10:1-42

The Seventy. The Good Samaritan. Martha and Mary1-16. Choice and mission of the Seventy (peculiar to Lk). Another step in the organisation of the Church. The Seventy receive a subordinate commission, similar to that of the apostles, to preach and to cast out devils (Luke 10:9, Luke 10:17). Two motives may be discerned in the sending forth of so numerous a body of missionaries. (1) The time before His Passion was now short, and Jesus wished the message of salvation to reach as many Israelites as... read more

(23-24) Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see . . .—Another instance of repeated words, St. Matthew reporting them as spoken after the parable of the Sower (Matthew 13:16. See Note on that verse). read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Luke 10:24

(24) Many prophets and kings. . . .—There is a slight verbal difference here as compared with St. Matthew’s report, which gives “prophets and righteous men.” read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Luke 10:1-42

The Service of Men Luke 10:1-2 Jesus in this conversation counsels His disciples concerning the conditions of the best service of man by man; and since we are all still apprentices to the Great Worker and Master, we welcome the opportunity of sitting at His feet, breathing the atmosphere of His presence, catching hints of the laws of all true work in and for His kingdom, and mastering the secret of His own intense, ceaseless, and wonderfully reproductive activity. I. But, first, we must... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 10:1-42

THE SENDING OF SEVENTY OTHERS (vs.1-16) As we progress in this Gospel, earthly things tend to recede and heaven comes gradually more into view, specially following the transfiguration (ch.9:8-36) and the Lord setting His face toward Jerusalem to be delivered up to the Jews (ch.9:51). Yet the testimony of the Lord increased. He sent forth seventy other disciples, in pairs, to prepare the way for Him in every city to which He would come. He gave them no encouragement to believe they would be... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 10:1-42

THE TWELVE AND THE SEVENTY The events of chapter 9 with a single exception, were dealt with in either Matthew or Mark. Luke, however, adds items of flesh interest to some of them which the student can easily discover by comparison. Chapter 10 has three subjects original with Luke: (1) the sending forth of the seventy (Luke 10:1-24 ); (2) the lawyers question and its answer (Luke 10:25-37 ); and (3) the story of Martha and Mary (Luke 10:38-42 ). The sending forth of the seventy fits into... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Luke 10:1-42

Inheriting Eternal Life Luk 10:25 You will observe that the man who asked this question was a lawyer, a man of education and of good standing; a man, therefore, from whom good behaviour and reverence of spirit might reasonably have been expected. You would think that when such a man spoke, he would speak soberly, he would mean, under such circumstances, exactly what he said. You find, however, that the inquiry, the very greatest that can possibly engage human attention, was put in a spirit of... read more
