John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:39

Behold my hands, and my feet ,.... The Evangelist John adds, "and side"; that is, the prints of the nails and spear, in his hands, and feet, and side; and the wounds they made there, and the scars they left behind; by which they might be convinced he was not a spirit, and be assured of the truth of his resurrection, and that in the same numerical body in which he suffered; as well as that it might be observed by them how great was his love to them, to endure what he did for them. Handle... read more

And when he had thus spoken ,.... And put them into a method of satisfying themselves by their senses: he showed them his hands and his feet ; that is, he held them forth to be seen and handled by them, which no doubt they did; and which were the infallible proofs by which he showed himself alive to them after his passion; and by which they knew the truth of his incarnation, or that he assumed a true and real body, and of the resurrection of the same body; see Acts 1:3 . read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:41

And while they yet believed not for joy ,.... Though they had been prepared for the belief of resurrection, by the report of the women, the relation of Simon Peter, and the account of the two disciples that came from Emmaus; yet such was the joy they were transported with, upon the evidence of it, the news was so good, and the favour and benefit so great, that they could scarcely believe their own senses of seeing and feeling: and wondered ; at the sight of their risen Lord, and at the... read more

And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish ,.... Which was left by them at supper, of which they had been eating; for being fishermen, most of them, this was agreeable food to them: and of an honeycomb ; not to eat with the fish, but after it. read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:43

And he took it, and did eat before them. That is, he took both the fish, and the honeycomb, and ate of them before them, they looking on all the while; and which was a proof of his being truly risen from the dead, and not a spectre, or apparition, and which they failed not afterwards to make use of; see Acts 10:41 . The Vulgate Latin, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions add, "he took the rest, or what remained, and gave it to them". read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:44

And he said unto them, these are the words which I spake unto you ,.... Or this is the substance of them, the sense and meaning of them; for what follows, we do not find any where expressed in so many words: while I was yet with you ; that is, whilst he was in his state of humiliation, whilst he dwelt among them, and had his abode with them; otherwise he was now with them, but not to continue with them; in a short time he was to ascend to his God, and their God, to his Father, and their... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:45

Then opened he their understanding ,.... He not only opened their hearts, to attend to what he said, and the proofs he gave of his resurrection from the dead in a true body; but he removed the veil from the eyes of their minds, and gave them an understanding of the sacred writings, respecting this matter: that they might understand the Scriptures ; concerning his sufferings, death, and resurrection, which they were very ignorant of before, and which were as a sealed book unto them, John... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:46

And he said unto them, thus it is written ,.... In the above cited books of the Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms; not what after follows, in so many words, but the matter and substance thereof: and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day ; it was necessary, both because of the decree and appointment of God, and because of the prophecies and predictions of the Old Testament; see Luke 24:25 . read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:47

And that repentance and remission of sins ,.... Which are the sum of the Gospel ministry; see Acts 20:21 the doctrine of "repentance" is not of the law, which neither requires, nor admits of it, but of the Gospel. The Persic version calls it, "the Gospel of repentance"; a doctrine preached by John the Baptist, Christ, and his apostles; and the thing itself is a blessing of the covenant, a gift of God's grace, and in the hands of Christ to bestow; and therefore the doctrine of it is... read more

And ye are witnesses of these things. As they were witnesses of the truth of his humanity, having seen, and heard, and handled him, both before, and after his resurrection from the dead, and of all that he did, of all the miracles that he wrought in Jerusalem, Judea, and Galilee, and of his transfiguration on the mount; so likewise of his sorrows in the garden, and of his sufferings in the palace of the high priest, and in Pilate's hall, and on the cross; and of his death, which was the... read more
