Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 24:51

2 Kings - Luke WAS, IS, IS TO COME THE ASCENSION THE TRIUMPHANT END THE TRANSLATION OF ELIJAH AND THE ASCENSION OF CHRIST 2Ki_2:11 . - Luk_24:51 . These two events, the translation of Elijah and the Ascension of our Lord, have sometimes been put side by side in order to show that the latter narrative is nothing but a ‘variant’ of the former. See, it is said, the source of your New Testament story is only the old legend shaped anew by the wistful regrets of the early disciples. But to me it... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 24:52-53

Luke THE TRIUMPHANT END Luk_24:36 - Luk_24:53 . There are no marks of time in this passage, and, for anything that appears, the narrative is continuous, and the Ascension might have occurred on the evening of the Resurrection. But neither is there anything to forbid interpreting this close of Luke’s Gospel by the fuller details contained in the beginning of his other treatise, the Acts, where the space of forty days interposes between the Resurrection and the Ascension. It is but reasonable... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 24:44-53

“Witnesses of These Things” Luke 24:44-53 The risen Savior is the key to Scripture. The pages of Holy Writ need the illumination that falls from His face. Whenever you open the Old Testament, described here under its customary Hebrew threefold division, be sure to ask Him to open your understanding also! Repentance is turning from sin. It is the act of the will. In remitting sin Christ not only forgives, but stands between the sinner and the consequences. The “beginning” must be Jerusalem,... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 24:1-53

No human eye saw the resurrection. The women came early, but only to find the stone rolled away. The record of those earliest experiences is full of touching beauty. Luke alone gives us the story of the walk to Emmaus, in which disappointed disciples poured out their story, and in which at last He revealed Himself to them as the Risen One. Much mystery still surrounds the fact of the resurrection, but the fact abides. There are suggestive points, moreover, in this account of His appearances.... read more

THE ASCENSION‘And He led them out as far as to Bethany, and He lifted up His hands, and blessed them. And it came to pass, while He blessed them, He was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.’ Luke 24:50-Colossians : Witnesses were not necessary to the act of Resurrection, but they were necessary to the act of Ascension. Why? Because, though there were no human witnesses to the act of resurrection, there were many witnesses who saw Him after He had risen from the dead. Suppose there... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Luke 24:52

TO JERUSALEM WITH GREAT JOY‘And they worshipped Him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy.’ Luke 24:52 The message of that descent from the hill of the Ascension is a message for all time, and for all the people of God, until ‘this same Jesus, in like manner, shall so come again, as He was seen going into heaven.’ Briefly and in much simplicity let us unfold some of the contents of it. I. For every believer there is a Jerusalem.—He has to live in some scene of the will of God, which is... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:1-53

Jesus Is Crucified And Rises Again (22:1-24:53). We now come to the final Section of Luke which is also in the form of a chiasmus (see analysis below). Central in this final chiasmus is the crucifixion of Jesus. This brings out how central the crucifixion is in the thinking of Luke. As the Servant of the Lord He is to be numbered among the transgressors for their sakes (Luke 22:37). This is indeed what the Gospel has been leading up to, something that is further demonstrated by the space given... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:44-51

The New Message And The New Power (24:44-51) In Mark 1:15 the Gospel is summarised as, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the Kingly Rule of God is at hand, repent and believe in the Good News.’ In other words ‘the time spoken of by Scripture is here, God’s Kingly Rule is at hand, and the conditions for entering that Kingly Rule are repentance and faith.’ In the speeches in Acts this is expanded by introducing the Good News concerning Jesus into the pattern, for by His enthronement in Heaven He has... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:44-53

The New Message And The New Power; A Final Summary Preparing For Acts (24:44-53). Having presented what he sees as the ultimate revelation of the earthly Jesus in describing the appearance of Jesus to His Apostles Luke moves rapidly on to His ascension, ignoring most of what took place in the following days in his usual way. Instead he prepares for the opening chapters of Acts by revealing in microcosm the message that was to be preached by His Apostles. It is quite possible that by this time... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:50

‘And he led them out until they were over against Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.’ Then having prepared them and opened their minds to understand the Scriptures, and having promised them the power that was coming to enable them for their future responsibility, He led them out to the Mount of Olives in the direction of Bethany, and their He lifted up His hands and blessed them. But Luke does not mention the Mount of Olives, for he has already shown that to be the place of... read more
