Geneva Study Bible - Luke 9:37

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 9:1-62

THE LORD JESUS SUFFICIENT FOR HUMAN MISERY AND NEED (vs.1-17) The Lord had shown Himself as the perfect remedy for the world's disturbance, its bondage to Satan, its disease occasioned by sin and its fear of death. Next we see Him capable also of graciously relieving its misery and want. In meeting this need, the Lord desired His disciples to take part with Him in this compassionate mission (vv.1-5 and v.13), though the power to show such grace belongs to Him, and it is He who communicated... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 9:1-62

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 9:1-62

Typical Men Luke 9:0 This chapter shows us how very different men may be from one another. It also shows us the point of union by which all men are kept together, notwithstanding their contrariety to make and fire and purpose. There is no monotony in human nature; yet human nature is one. It will be interesting to give speciality of position in the eye of our imagination to some of the typical men who are so graphically described in this chapter. First of all, here is the perplexed man: "Now... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Luke 9:37-48

(37) And it came to pass, that on the next day, when they were come down from the hill, much people met him: (38) And, behold, a man of the company cried out, saying, Master, I beseech thee look upon my son: for he is mine only child. (39) And, lo, a spirit taketh him, and he suddenly crieth out: and he teareth him, that he foameth again, and bruising him, hardly departeth from him. (40) And I besought thy disciples to cast him out; and they could not. (41) And Jesus answering, said, O... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 9:37-42

37-42 How deplorable the case of this child! He was under the power of an evil spirit. Disease of that nature are more frightful than such as arise merely from natural causes. What mischief Satan does where he gets possession! But happy those that have access to Christ! He can do that for us which his disciples cannot. A word from Christ healed the child; and when our children recover from sickness, it is comfortable to receive them as healed by the hand of Christ. read more

Frank Binford Hole

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 9:1-99

Luke 9 THE DISCIPLES HAD now had full opportunity of learning their Master’s spirit and methods and power; so they were sent forth, and verses Luke 9.1-9.6 tell us how they were commissioned. “Then He called . . . and gave . . . He sent . . . He said . . .” The order of the four verbs is very instructive. His is the choice and not ours. But then He not only calls but also gives the authority and power adequate for the service to which He calls. Not until that power is given does He... read more
