George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Luke 24:30

The ancient Fathers think our Saviour consecrated, on this occasion, and administered the Eucharist to the two disciples. In the Acts of the Apostles, this same term, breaking of bread, is explained without difficulty of the Eucharist. St. Luke seems fond of this manner of expression, to signify that sacrament.

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:28-35

28-35 If we would have Christ dwell with us, we must be earnest with him. Those that have experienced the pleasure and profit of communion with him, cannot but desire more of his company. He took bread, and blessed it, and brake, and gave to them. This he did with his usual authority and affection, with the same manner, perhaps with the same words. He here teaches us to crave a blessing on every meal. See how Christ by his Spirit and grace makes himself known to the souls of his people. He... read more

Frank Binford Hole

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 24:1-99

Luke 24 THE CLOSING VERSES of Luke 23.0 , and the opening part of this chapter makes it very plain that none of His disciples in any way anticipated His resurrection. This makes the testimony to it all the more pronounced and satisfying. They were not enthusiastic and visionary, inclined to believe anything, but rather of materialistic mind and despondent, inclined to doubt everything. The women are brought before us in the first place. They had no thoughts but those suitable to an ordinary... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Luke 24:25-31

Jesus, the kind Instructor: v. 25. Then He said unto them, O fools, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! v. 26. Ought not Christ to have suffered these things, and to enter into His glory? v. 27. And beginning at Moses and all the prophets, He expounded unto them in all the Scriptures the things concerning Himself. v. 28. And they drew nigh unto the village whither they went; and He made as though He would have gone further. v. 29. But they constrained Him,... read more

B. Over the Despondency of Unbelief. Luke 24:13-451. The Appearing to the Disciples of Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35)13And, behold, two of them went [were journeying] that same day to a village called14Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs [stadia]. And theytalked together of all these things which had happened. 15And it came to pass, that, while they communed [were conversing] together and reasoned [or, were discussing], Jesus himself drew near, and went [journeyed] with them.... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 24:30-31

Luke THE RISEN LORD’ S SELF-REVELATION TO WAVERING DISCIPLES THE MEAL AT EMMAUS Luk_24:30 - Luk_24:31 . Perhaps the most striking characteristic of the Gospel accounts of our Lord’s intercourse with His disciples, in the interval between the Resurrection and His Ascension, is the singular union of mystery and simplicity which they present. There is a certain air of remoteness and depth over all the intercourse, as if it meant more, and was intended to teach more, than appears on the... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 24:28-35

“Abide with Us” Luke 24:28-35 Our Lord must be invited and constrained. He will not impose Himself on an unwilling host; but how glad He is to enter where a welcome awaits! He turns ordinary meals into sacraments; common rooms into royal chambers: and the homeliest things into symbols of the eternal. He sat with them, then vanished; but He was no less truly with them when He ceased to be seen-and all to teach them that when He had passed permanently from their sight He would be nearer than... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 24:1-53

No human eye saw the resurrection. The women came early, but only to find the stone rolled away. The record of those earliest experiences is full of touching beauty. Luke alone gives us the story of the walk to Emmaus, in which disappointed disciples poured out their story, and in which at last He revealed Himself to them as the Risen One. Much mystery still surrounds the fact of the resurrection, but the fact abides. There are suggestive points, moreover, in this account of His appearances.... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:1-53

Jesus Is Crucified And Rises Again (22:1-24:53). We now come to the final Section of Luke which is also in the form of a chiasmus (see analysis below). Central in this final chiasmus is the crucifixion of Jesus. This brings out how central the crucifixion is in the thinking of Luke. As the Servant of the Lord He is to be numbered among the transgressors for their sakes (Luke 22:37). This is indeed what the Gospel has been leading up to, something that is further demonstrated by the space given... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:13-34

Two Disciples Meet Jesus on the Road To Emmaus (24:13-34). The women having been brought to believe, Jesus now brings two ‘unknown’ disciples to belief. It may be that by these means He was hoping to bring most of the Apostles to belief before He appeared to them physically, so that they would have the greater blessing (John 20:29), and would obey Him by going to meet Him in Galilee (Mark 16:7), without Him having to appear to them in Jerusalem. But if so the hopes to some extent failed to... read more
