ルカの福音書 19:12-15 JCB

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Luke 19:11-27

Our Lord Jesus is now upon his way to Jerusalem, to his last passover, when he was to suffer and die; now here we are told, I. How the expectations of his friends were raised upon this occasion: They thought that the kingdom of God would immediately appear, Luke 19:11. The Pharisees expected it about this time (Luke 17:20), and, it seems, so did Christ's own disciples; but they both had a mistaken notion of it. The Pharisees thought that it must be introduced by some other temporal prince or... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Luke 19:11-27

19:11-27 As they were listening to these things, Jesus went on to tell them a parable because he was near Jerusalem, and they were thinking that the kingdom of God was going to appear immediately. So he said, "There was a noble man who went into a distant country to receive a kingdom for himself and then to return. He called ten of his own servants and gave them 5 pounds each and said to them, 'Trade with these until I come.' His citizens hated him, and they despatched an embassy after him,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 19:12

He said therefore ,.... The following parable, with the above said design and view: a certain nobleman ; the son of a great family, as the Syriac version renders it; of noble descent, of an illustrious extract; by whom is meant Jesus Christ, who was a "man", as he agreed to be, and was prophesied of as such; and who frequently appeared in an human form before his incarnation; and was now actually become man, though not a mere man: and he may truly be said to be "noble"; not only as the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 19:13

And he called his ten servants ,.... By whom are meant, not all mankind; for though these are all his servants of right, yet not in fact; nor the elect of God, who are called by grace; for though these are the servants of Christ, and are peculiarly his, yet all that received the pound were not such, for one of them was a wicked man; but the ministers of the Gospel, who are eminently, and in a special manner, the servants of the most high God: but as for the number "ten", this cannot regard... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 19:14

But his citizens hated him ,.... Not those who are fellow citizens with the saints, and of the household of God; whose citizenship is in heaven, and who are seeking the better country, and heavenly city; but the Jews, who were his own people and nation, among whom he was born, to whom he was sent and came, and had an undoubted right to the government of them: these hated him with a mortal hatred, as appeared by their traducing his person in the most opprobrious manner; vilifying his doctrine... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 19:15

And it came to pass that when he was returned ,.... Which return was either in power to Jerusalem, in the destruction of that city; or which will be in person to this earth, at the end of the world; and will be local and visible, and in great glory, attended with the holy angels, and with all the saints: the time is fixed and certain, though unknown, and will be sudden and unexpected; but will not be till after the Gospel has had a general spread all over the world, and the Jews are... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 19:12

A certain nobleman - In the following parable there are two distinct morals intended; let it be viewed in these two points of light. 1. The behavior of the citizens to the nobleman; and, 2. The behavior of his own servants to him. By the behavior of the citizens, and their punishment, ( Luke 19:14 , Luke 19:27 ;), we are taught that the Jews, who were the people of Christ, would reject him, and try to prevent his reigning over them in his spiritual kingdom, and would for that crime be... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 19:13

Ten servants - All those who professed to receive his doctrine. Ten was a kind of sacred number among the Hebrews, as well as seven. See Luke 14:31 ; Luke 15:8 ; Matthew 15:1 . Ten pounds - Ten minas. The Septuagint use the original word μναα for the Hebrew מנה maneh , from which it is evidently derived; and it appears from Ezekiel 45:12 , to have been equal to sixty shekels in money. Now suppose we allow the shekel, with Dean Prideaux, to be 3s., then the mina or maneh was... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 19:14

His citizens - Or countrymen - the Jewish people, who professed to be subjects of the kingdom of God. Hated him - Despised him for the meanness of his birth, his crucifixion to the world, and for the holiness of his doctrine. Neither mortification nor holiness suits the dispositions of the carnal mind. Sent a message after him - As, in Luke 19:12 , there is an allusion to a person's going to Rome, when elected to be ruler of a province or kingdom, to receive that dignity from the... read more
