누가복음 18:2 KRV

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 18:1-5

The Importunate Widow. The unjust judge: v. 1. And He spake a parable unto them to this end that men ought always to pray and not to faint, v. 2. saying, There was in a city a judge which feared not God, neither regarded man, v. 3. And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. v. 4. And he would not for a while; but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God nor regard man, v. 5. yet, because this widow troubleth me, I... read more

Luke THREE KINDS OF PRAYING Luk_18:1 - Luk_18:14 . The two parables in this passage are each prefaced by Luke’s explanation of their purpose. They are also connected by being both concerned with aspects of prayer. But the second was apparently not spoken at the same time as the first, but is put here by Luke as in an appropriate place. I. The wearisome widow and the unrighteous judge. The similarities and dissimilarities between this parable and that in Luk_11:5 - Luk_11:8 are equally... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 18:1-8

the Lesson for Dark Days Luke 18:1-8 There are three phases in our Lord’s teaching about prayer-that of Matthew 6:1-34 , Luke 18:1-43 , and the words of John 14:1-31 ; John 15:1-27 . In Luke 18:1-8 He exhorts to uniformity and urgency. There is an aspect of prayer that we are in danger of overlooking when the skies are blue and the sun is shining, and that is, the need of holy violence. This lesson is taught, in the parable of this paragraph, by a striking contrast which may be stated thus:... read more

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

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 18:1-8

The Parable of the Unrighteous Judge (18:1-8). As Luke 18:8 b makes clear, this parable looks directly back to Jesus’ prophecy which describes Himself as coming as the Son of Man in Luke 17:24. It is a call to His disciples, and to all Christians, to continue in praying that God will maintain the cause of His people until that Day. However, the question in 8b makes clear that the way is not necessarily going to be easy. It demonstrates that His people will have to face up to many... read more

Men Must Live In The Light Of The Coming Of The Son of Man In His Glory (15:1-19:28). Having established in Section 1 that Jesus was born in Bethlehem in the city of David where He was proclaimed ‘Saviour’ and ‘Lord Messiah’; and in Section 2 that as ‘the Son of God’ Jesus had faced His temptations as to what His Messiahship would involve and defeated the Tempter; and that in Section 3 He had proclaimed in parables the secrets of ‘the Kingly Rule of God’; and had in Section 4 taught His... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 18:2

‘Saying, “There was in a city a judge, who feared not God, and regarded not man,” ’ The parable opens with the description of a city judge who is absolutely resolute. He fears neither God nor man. He is seemingly unaffected by anything. He does precisely what he pleases. In this he is like God Who is over all and acts completely on His own without any restriction. The only distinction is that in the case of God, He does only what is right. That is a principle of Scripture from the very... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 18:1-8

Luke 18:1-Ruth : . Parable of the Unrighteous Judge (Lk. only).— There is a connexion with the preceding sayings; the Advent may be delayed, yet the disciples should incessantly pray for it— it will surely come. The parable has a specific point, it is not simply an exhortation to prayer like Luke 11:5-Ruth :. There is a striking parallel with Sir_35:12-19 , even to the idea of vengeance on enemies of the community and the faith. The parable is constructed on the a fortiori principle. God... read more
