Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Luke 12:41-49

CRITICAL NOTESLuke 12:41. Then Peter said.—The high reward promised, rather than the duty enjoined, was in Peter’s thoughts, and involved a certain measure of danger against which Christ warns him. It is noticeable that his question is not answered directly, but by implication. “Jesus continues His teaching as if He took no account of Peter’s question; but in reality He gives such a turn to the warning which follows about watchfulness, that it includes the precise answer to the question”... read more

DISCOURSE: 1530PUNISHMENT PROPORTIONED TO MEN’S DESERTLuke 12:47-48. That servant, which knew his Lord’s will, and prepared not himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he that knew not, and did commit things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required; and to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the more.IF there be much spoken in Scripture concerning the necessity... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Luke 12:1-59

Shall we turn in our Bibles to Luke's gospel, chapter 12.We are dealing with the final month in the ministry of Jesus. He has returned to Jerusalem. He will soon be leaving Jerusalem to go down to the area of the Jordan River beyond Jericho. Where He will sort of absent Himself from the authorities, until such a time as He comes back for the feast of the Passover, and makes His triumphant entry on the Sunday before the feast of the Passover. So just where, here in Luke's account, does Jesus... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Luke 12:1-59

Luke 12:1 . There were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people. The Greek is myriads, or ten thousands of people. Luke 12:5 . Power to cast into hell. The Greek is Gehenna, as on Isaiah 30:33. Matthew 5:22. Luke 12:6 . Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings, two assarions. The assarion was the tenth of a denarion. A farthing, that is, the fourth of a penny, though correct in English, is quite erroneous when applied to the denarion, as in the Greek. Matthew 22:19.... read more

Luke 12:42-44That faithful and wise stewardOur stewardshipI.HERE IS REPRESENTED A SITUATION OF WEIGHTY RESPONSIBILITY. A stewardship. All responsibility on the part of man is owing to God. 1. And first, my brethren, let it be remarked that God, on this principle and in this relationship of responsibility, or of stewardship, has endowed us with natural faculties: faculties which impart to us a dominion and empire over the various orders of that material creation by which we are surrounded;... read more

Luke 12:47Beaten with many stripesMany stripesOur Lord in the context urges His disciples to diligence, watchfulness, and fidelity.This is important, for we are stewards, servants, and are responsible to Him who will one day say unto us, “Give an account of thy stewardship.” I. THE CHARACTER SUSTAINED--“That servant.” In many passages of Scripture true believers are called the servants of God. Called so by God--by Christ--by believers themselves (see John 12:26). “Paul a servant of God”;... read more

Luke 12:48For unto whomsoever much is givenThe law of accountability-These words are rendered as a reason why those servants that know their master’s will are beaten with more stripes than those that knew it not, because they did not improve their advantages.And Christ pleadeth the equity of it from the custom of men, expressed in their common proverbs or sentences, that go from hand to hand among the people. A beneficiary that hath received much from his benefactor is obliged to a greater... read more
