Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 9:26

For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he cometh in his own glory, and the glory of the Father, and his holy angels.Characteristic of the Gospels, these verses (Luke 9:23-27) are independent sayings of Jesus, gathered here into a single paragraph, as in Mark 8:34-9:1. See under those references in my Commentary on Mark. The warning in this verse is against being ashamed of Jesus and his words, there being no essential difference. One... read more

Luke 9:26. In his own glory, and in his Father's,— In his own glory, may signify the glorypeculiar to him as God-man—probably the majesty and splendor of his glorified body, a visible representation of which he exhibited in his transfiguration, about a week after this discourse was delivered. He shall come also in the glory of the Father, augustly arrayed in the inaccessible light, wherein the Godhead dwells; (1 Timothy 6:16. See also Acts 1:11.) and which, darting through and enlightening all... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Luke 9:26

26. ashamed of me, and of my words—The sense of shame is one of the strongest in our nature, one of the social affections founded on our love of reputation, which causes instinctive aversion to what is fitted to lower it, and was given us as a preservative from all that is properly shameful. When one is, in this sense of it, lost to shame, he is nearly past hope (Zechariah 3:5; Jeremiah 6:15; Jeremiah 3:3). But when Christ and "His words"—Christianity, especially in its more spiritual and... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 9:1-50

G. Jesus’ preparation of the Twelve 9:1-50In this last major section describing Jesus’ ministry in and around Galilee (Luke 4:14 to Luke 9:50), Luke stressed Jesus’ preparation of His disciples for the opposition that lay before them. This was the climax of Jesus’ ministry in Galilee, and these events formed a bridge to Luke’s unique major section on Jesus’ journey to Jerusalem (Luke 9:51 to Luke 19:10).Previously Luke recorded Jesus teaching and authenticating His teaching with miracles mainly... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 9:14-50

IV. JESUS’ MINISTRY IN AND AROUND GALILEE 4:14-9:50Luke commenced his account of Jesus’ public ministry with His return to Galilee following His temptation. This section of his Gospel ends with Jesus’ decision to leave Galilee for Jerusalem and the Cross (Luke 9:51). Luke did not give as much information about Jesus’ Galilean ministry as the other synoptic writers did (cf. Matthew 4:12 to Matthew 16:12; Mark 1:14 to Mark 8:26). He chose, rather, to emphasize Jesus’ ministry as He traveled from... read more

The implications for the disciples 9:23-27 (cf. Matthew 16:24-28; Mark 8:34-9:1)Jesus proceeded to explain the consequences for disciples who choose to follow Him faithfully in view of His rejection. read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 9:24-26

These verses expand the ideas of loss and shame implied in the illustration of bearing one’s cross (Luke 9:23). The contrast is first giving up what the world can provide to gain what God can provide. It involves going without now with the faith that God will abundantly reward any sacrifice that a disciple makes to follow Him faithfully. Moreover it involves giving up oneself to gain something for oneself either now or later. The second contrast is between glory (i.e., a good reputation) now in... read more
