Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:13-35

Luke 24:13-Habakkuk : . The Appearance on the Way to Emmaus.— This exquisite story is told by Lk. only. The village is perhaps the Ammaus of Josephus, the modern Kolonije, five miles W. from Jerusalem. Luke 24:19 f . describes Jesus as a prophet who His friends hoped (till the hope was shattered by His death) might prove to be the Messiah. They are shown that Scripture foretold Messiah’ s death; it was necessary to His glory. That glory was apparently attained in the moment of the death (... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Luke 24:25-27

By our Saviour’s form of reprehending his disciples, we may both learn: 1. That it is not every saying, Thou fool, but a saying of it from a root of hatred, malice, and anger, which our Saviour makes to be a breach of the sixth commandment, Matthew 5:21,Matthew 5:22. Our Saviour’s reprehension of them was out of a principle of love, and a root of good will to them. 2. That the best of us are very slow of heart to believe what cometh to us upon the mere credit of a Divine revelation. It is also... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Luke 24:13-43

CRITICAL NOTESLuke 24:13. Two of them.—It is evident from Luke 24:33 that neither of them were apostles. The name of one of them is given in Luke 24:18, Cleopas (i.e., an abbreviation of Cleopatros), a different name from Cleopas of John 19:25. Conjectures as to the name of the other are futile. Went.—Rather, “were going” (R.V.). Emmaus.—Mentioned in Josephus, B.J., VII. Luke 6:6. Omit “about”; omitted in R.V.Luke 24:14. They talked.—Rather, “communed” (R.V.); the same word as in Luke... read more

Charles Simeon's Horae Homileticae - Luke 24:26

DISCOURSE: 1589THE NECESSITY OF CHRIST’S SUFFERINGS AND EXALTATIONLuke 24:26. Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into his glory?AN ignorance of the Scriptures is far more injurious to us than we are apt to imagine; for it lies at the root of all our errors both in faith and practice. The infidels of old denied the doctrine of the resurrection, “not knowing the Scriptures or the power of God.” The Jewish rulers crucified their Messiah, because they were ignorant of the... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Luke 24:1-53

Chapter 24Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came to the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them. And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre. And they entered in, and they found not the body of the Lord Jesus. And it came to pass, as they were very perplexed, behold, two men stood my them in shining garments: And as they were afraid, and bowed down their faces to the earth, they said unto them, Why seek... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Luke 24:13-35

Luke 24:13-35Two of them went that same day to a village called EmmausThe journey to EmmausI.WE SEE IN THIS APPEARANCE, AS IN THE OTHERS, SOMETHING VERY CHARACTERISTIC OF OUR LORD’S HABITS AND WAYS DURING HIS LIFETIME, His disciples and followers were always craving for publicity and display. He was always retiring from too much of that, carrying on His work as quietly as possible. And so here. Jesus rises alone--at the break of day. No mortal sees Him put on immortality. Bright angels stand as... read more
