Luke BLASPHEMER, OR-WHO? Luk_5:17 - Luk_5:26 . Luke describes the composition of the unfriendly observers in this crowd with more emphasis and minuteness than the other Evangelists do. They were Pharisees and doctors, and they were assembled from every part of Galilee, and even from Judea, and, what was most remarkable, from Jerusalem itself. Probably the conflict with the authorities in the capital recorded in Joh_5:1 - Joh_5:47 had taken place by this time, and if so, a deputation from... read more

Cleansing, Power and Pardon Luke 5:12-26 Jesus did not hesitate to touch the leper, because He could no more be polluted by uncleanness than could a ray of light by passing through a fetid atmosphere. The question is never in can or will, as applied to Christ, but whether we will trust Him and can believe. The Mosaic offering was a pair of birds, one of which was killed over running water; while the other, having been dipped into this mingled blood and water, was freed to fly away in its... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 5:1-39

Four of Jesus' disciples, already called into the relation of discipleship, are here called more definitely to service. Taking command of their vessel, to which in all probability they had returned without warrant, they found Him able to direct them in an earthly calling, and by so doing lifting them to the position from where henceforth, they would catch men. The coming of the leper revealed an advance beyond the common crowd in his attitude toward Jesus. The leper believed in Jesus' power... read more

SPIRITUAL SOLITUDE‘And He withdrew Himself into the wilderness, and prayed.’ Luke 5:16 The wilderness and the mountain—the two loneliest places He could command—appear several times to have made fitting retirement for Christ.God provides wildernesses for us all, and He provides them in the same mercy and in the same intention with which He provided them for Israel, or for Moses, or for Elijah, or for Paul, or for Christ. I. Where is the wilderness?—The many bright rooms of your house are the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 5:12-16

The Cleansing of A Skin Diseased Man (5:12-16). The cleansing of a skin diseased man by touching him is something that would have affected the ancient mind like little else. It indicated a mastery over disease and uncleanness that was unique. Skin disease was held in horror by all, and skin diseased men and women were to be avoided. They were expected to avoid human company, except for their own kind, and to call ‘unclean, unclean’ so as to warn people to keep away from them (Leviticus... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 5:15

‘But so much the more went abroad the report concerning him, and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed of their infirmities.’ But in the face of such an event the publicity was unavoidable. News about Him spread even more, and great crowds came to Him to hear Him, and to be healed from their sicknesses and diseases. read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 5:16

‘But he withdrew himself in the deserts, and prayed.’ While walking in the towns and cities (Luke 5:12) Jesus was constantly open to approaches by needy people, and this made it all the more necessary that at times He withdraw into desert places to meet with His Father (compare Luke 6:12; Luke 9:18; Luke 9:28; Luke 11:1; Luke 22:32). He may have been withdrawing from the effects of the new success, but whatever the reason it was an indication that He needed these times of resuscitation in the... read more
