luke-6:18-kjv

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Luke 6:1-99

Luke 6 AS WE OPEN this chapter, we see the Pharisees and scribes attempting to confine the actions of the disciples, and then also the gracious power of the Lord, within the limits of the Jewish sabbath, as they were accustomed to enforce it. This illustrates His teaching at the close of chapter 5, and in result the “bottle” of the Jewish sabbath burst, and grace flows forth in spite of them. The words, “The second sabbath after the first,” refer we believe to Lev_23:9-14 , and are intended to... read more

And He came down with them.—We have therefore to conceive the Saviour as surrounded by a threefold circle of hearers; the first indicated by μετ̓ αὐτῶν (the recently chosen Twelve), the second described as an ὄχλος μαθητῶν, and this latter again closed around by πλῆθος πολὺ τοῦ λαοῦ, who come partly even from beyond the boundaries.

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 6:12-26

New Leaders and New Principles Luke 6:12-26 There are three circles here: First, Christ and His Apostles-the men who were to be sent into all the world to preach the gospel and to lay the foundations of the Church. How little did these single men imagine that one day their names would become inscribed on the foundation stones of the New Jerusalem! The next circle is that of the disciples, Luke 6:17 . You must be a disciple before you can be an apostle. You must learn, if you are to teach.... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 6:1-49

In a synagogue our Lord healed the man with a withered hand, and the religious watchers were filled with anger because, according to their view, our Lord had desecrated the Sabbath. Surely, there is no desecration of divine ordinances so powerful as that severe orthodoxy which clogs the stream of compassion. By fulfilling its intention, the Lord of the Sabbath sacredly kept it in restoring this man to health and power. Luke gives us here the account of our Lord's choosing of the twelve. It is... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 6:12-19

The Laying Of The Foundation For The New Israel (6:12-19). After revealing what He has come to be, Jesus now goes about establishing the new Israel. He appoints leaders for the twelve tribes (Luke 6:12-16). He proclaims a new Law (Luke 6:17-49). He provides a foretaste of the sending out of His power to the Gentiles (Luke 7:1-10). He raises the dead, a foretaste of the resurrection (Luke 7:11-17). He points to His signs and wonders in order to encourage John and as evidence that He is the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 6:18-19

‘And those who were troubled with unclean spirits were healed. And all the multitude sought to touch him, for power came forth from him, and healed them all.’ Unclean spirits could not stand His presence. We are probably to see that those who were possessed were healed at His word. Uncleanness was being banished, and Satan’s kingdom overthrown (compare Luke 11:17-22). And the crowd pressed in to touch Him for the power came forth from Him, and it healed them all. read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 6:12-19

Luke 6:12-Psalms : . The Appointment of the Twelve. Miracles of Healing ( Mark 3:12-Psalms : *, Matthew 10:2-Numbers :; Matthew 12:15-Ecclesiastes : *).— Mk. puts the healings first. Lk. transposes his order to bring the Twelve into prominence. Jesus prepares for the choice by a night of prayer, and then deliberately marks off the Twelve from the rank and file of the disciples. Judas (the son) of James, takes the place of Thaddæ us (Mk.) or Lebbæ us (Mt.). Jesus comes down (to the plain or... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Luke 6:17-19

Such passages as these we meet with several times in the evangelists, who not writing a particular account of the several miracles wrought, or discourses made, by our Saviour, oftentimes they give us a general account of more than they particularly mention. Some think that Luke refers here to Mark 3:7,Mark 3:8; but Mark seemeth rather to refer to a multitude that followed him before he went up to the mountain, which yet might be the same people coming again the next morning, and waiting for... read more
