路加福音 18:30 RCUVSS

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 18:1-30

COMING OF THE KINGDOM A transition of thought and teaching is marked by the demand of the Pharisees, “when the Kingdom of God should come” (Luke 17:20 ) the Kingdom of which he had said so much, and which they had been led to expect by the Old Testament prophets. In our Lord’s answer, “within you” (Luke 17:21 ) is to be taken in the sense of “in the midst of you” (see RV margin), the meaning of which is seen in the context. The Scofield Bible note is informative here: The Kingdom in its... 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 18:18-30

(18) And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? (19) And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is God. (20) Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother. (21) And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up. (22) Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing; sell all that... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 18:18-30

18-30 Many have a great deal in them very commendable, yet perish for lack of some one thing; so this ruler could not bear Christ's terms, which would part between him and his estate. Many who are loth to leave Christ, yet do leave him. After a long struggle between their convictions and their corruptions, their corruptions carry the day. They are very sorry that they cannot serve both; but if one must be quitted, it shall be their God, not their wordly gain. Their boasted obedience will be... 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

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Luke 18:28-30

Peter's question: v. 28. Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all and followed Thee. v. 29. And He said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children for the kingdom of God's sake v. 30. who shall not receive manifold more in this present time and in the world to come life everlasting. The disciples of Jesus had experienced in their own lives the wonderful mercy of God, who had not only caused them to forsake the things... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Luke 18:18-30

2. Jesus and the Rich Young Man (Luke 18:18-30)(Parallels: Matthew 19:16-30; Mark 10:17-31.)18And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master [Teacher], what shall I do to inherit eternal life? 19And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God. 20Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy 21mother. And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up. 22Now when... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 18:15-30

Luke ENTERING THE KINGDOM Luk_18:15 - Luk_18:30 . In this section Luke rejoins the other two Evangelists, from whom his narrative has diverged since Luk_9:51 . All three bring together these two incidents of the children in Christ’s arms and the young ruler. Probably they were connected in time as well as in subject. Both set forth the conditions of entering the kingdom, which the one declares to be lowliness and trust, and the other to be self-renunciation. I. We have the child-likeness... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 18:18-30

the One Thing Needful Luke 18:18-30 The young ruler was a man of irreproachable character. He might have said of himself all that the Apostle Paul says in Philippians 3:4 , etc . But he was restless and unsatisfied. He felt that Jesus had the key to a life deeper than he had experienced, and he longed to possess it. He was so much in earnest that he knelt in the crowded thoroughfare before the despised Nazarene, Mark 10:17 . He did not know himself. He thought he possessed that love which... read more

G. Campbell Morgan

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 18:1-43

Two parables on prayer are here given. The first insists on its necessity as an alternative to fainting. The second reveals the secrets of prevailing prayer, namely, humility and a deep sense of need. The comparison of the two prayers offered in the Temple precincts will show in the case of the Pharisee a sense of self which almost excluded the consciousness of God, while in the case of the publican the supreme sense was of God. The fist was rejected. The other was justified. It is... read more
