Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 9:57

And as they went on their way, a certain man said unto him, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.THREE PROSPECTIVE FOLLOWERSMany a soul has felt the thrilling impulse to leave everything and follow the Lord; and if following Jesus continued to have the sharp romantic focus in the believer's heart, as in the case of this man, then there would be a great many more followers. However, much more is involved than an enthusiastic decision. Under the excitement of the moment, this man declared... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 9:58

And Jesus said unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the heaven have nests; but the Son of man hath no where to lay his head.The thing Luke was emphasizing in this incident and in the whole section through Luke 19:44 "is the fact that our Lord had deliberately chosen the way to Jerusalem and the cross."[15] Appropriate to that purpose was the inclusion here at the beginning of three prospective followers and the tests they failed (presumably). The first prospect evidently thought... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 9:59

And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.This was prospect number two. He would follow the Lord, but of course, not during the lifetime of his father; after his father's death, and the estate had been settled, then he would be glad to follow. If his father was already dead, the man would have been occupied already with the funeral. Jesus' rejoinder stated the claim of highest priority for the affairs of his kingdom. read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 9:60

But he said unto him, Leave the dead to bury their own dead; but go thou and publish abroad the kingdom of God.Matthew's Gospel (Matthew 8:18-21) records the event of these first two prospects, the same being one of the few places that either of the other synoptics touches this section. Even here, Luke gave a fuller account; and it is doubtful that he had before him either Mark or Matthew. If other synoptics had been "sources" of Luke, there is every reason to believe he would have mentioned... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Luke 9:60

Luke 9:60. Let the dead bury their dead, &c.— See the notes on Matthew 8:21. The present circumstance was plainly extraordinary, and might turn on reasons unknown to us. Christ might, for instance, foresee some particular obstruction that would have arisen from the interview with this person's friends at his father's funeral, and have prevented his devoting himself to the ministry; to which he might refer by saying, Let the dead bury their dead. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 9:57-58

Matthew wrote that the man was a scribe (Matthew 8:19), but Luke generalized the reference, probably so every reader could identify with the man. The man professed willingness to follow Jesus anywhere as His intimate disciple. Jesus did not rebuke him but clarified for him what that would involve so he could count the cost intelligently. He would need to be willing to accept homelessness, physical discomfort, other privation, and rejection. Jesus’ disciples had experienced these things... read more

2. The importance of self-denial 9:57-62 (cf. Matthew 8:19-22)Luke turned from a presentation of people who rejected Jesus to one in which three individuals wanted to become His disciples. Each of them underestimated the degree of commitment that Jesus required. Jesus’ words clarify the cost of discipleship (cf. Luke 9:23-26). Note the recurrence of the key word "follow" in Luke 9:57; Luke 9:59; Luke 9:61. The first two incidents evidently happened during Jesus’ ministry in Galilee (cf. Matthew... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 9:59-60

The first man came to Jesus requesting permission to follow Him. This one received a command from Jesus to follow Him in exactly the same words as Jesus used to call the Twelve (e.g., Luke 5:27)."The expression ’to follow’ a Teacher would, in those days, be universally understood as implying discipleship." [Note: Edersheim, 2:133.] Matthew’s account has him approaching Jesus, but this was evidently after Jesus called him. Was the man’s father dead already, or was he in danger of dying? The text... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Luke 9:57-60

(57-60) Lord, I will follow thee.—See Notes on Matthew 8:19-22. The two anecdotes, if we may so call them, are placed by the two Evangelists in a very different connection. It is clear that their isolated, fragmentary character, with no definite notes of time and place, left a large margin to the discretion of each compiler as to where they should appear. The difference between the “certain man” of St. Luke’s report, and the “scribe” of St. Matthew’s, slight as it is, takes its place among the... read more
