Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Luke 24:25

O fools - The word “fool” sometimes is a term of reproach denoting “wickedness.” In this sense we are forbidden to employ it in addressing another, Matthew 5:22. That, however, is a different word in the Greek from the one which occurs here. The one there used implies contempt, but the one employed in this place denotes “weakness or dulness.” He reproached them for not seeing what he had himself so clearly predicted, and what had been foretold by the prophets. The word used in the original does... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Luke 24:26

Ought not Christ ... - Ought not the “Messiah.” Was there not evidence that he would do it? and was it not indispensable that he should, in order to fulfil the prophecies? The “necessity” of his suffering these things referred to “here” was that it was foretold that he “would.” The reason why it was predicted, and why it was necessary that it should occur, was that it was proper that God should manifest his justice, and do honor to his law, and secure the due regard for his government, while he... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Luke 24:13-24

Luke 24:13-24. Behold, two of them Not of the apostles, for those two, returning, told what had passed between Christ and them to the eleven apostles, (Luke 24:33; Luke 24:35,) but two of the other disciples that were with them; went that same day On which Jesus arose; to a village called Emmaus Not that Emmaus near Tiberias, so called from the hot baths there, for that was in Galilee, but a village in the tribe of Judah; about threescore furlongs That is, near eight miles from... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Luke 24:25-27

Luke 24:25-27. Then he said, O fools Ω ανοητοι , O foolish, or thoughtless persons. The word is not Ω μωροι , properly rendered, O fools, and is a term of great indignation, and sometimes of contempt; but that employed here is only a term of expostulation and reproof; and slow of heart to believe, &c. From this reproof it would appear, that Cleopas and his companion were of the number of those who gave little credit to the tidings which the women had brought of their Master’s... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Luke 24:13-35

162. On the road to Emmaus (Mark 16:12-13; Luke 24:13-35)That afternoon Jesus joined two sorrowful disciples who were walking from Jerusalem to the village of Emmaus, but they did not recognize him (Mark 16:12; Luke 24:13-16). When they started to explain their sadness, they expressed surprise that their unknown companion had not heard about the crucifixion of Jesus. Their understanding of Jesus’ mission was not very clear, for they had hoped he would bring national liberation to Israel; but... read more
