Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 19:39

‘And some of the Pharisees from the crowd said to him, “Teacher, rebuke your disciples.” ’ The Pharisees did not like what they were hearing, and they called on Jesus to rebuke these who were shouting out. It may have been concern for His and their safety. It may have been because they did not like such ascriptions being made to the Prophet with Whom they were at disagreement, and were seeking to calm the fervour, feeling that Jesus could not want it also, as it was surely going too far. It was... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 19:39-46

The Response of The Pharisees: God’s Coming Judgment on Jerusalem (19:39-46). It was not to be expected that this hearty welcome of Jesus would please the Pharisees. Perhaps they were afraid of the reaction of Rome, or possibly they felt that it was coming near to blasphemy. But either way they wanted the enthusiasm stilled. There is possibly a hint in this of, ‘Now look what you have done by entering Jerusalem in this spectacular way.’ Jesus’ reply is significant. It stresses to them that... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 19:28-40

Luke 19:28-Matthew : . The Triumphal Entry ( Mark 11:1-1 Kings : *, Matthew 21:1-1 Kings : *).— There is nothing peculiar in Lk.’ s narrative except Luke 19:28, which recalls Luke 9:51, till we come to Luke 19:37. There the crowd is defined as consisting of disciples, and their exultation ascribed to the mighty works which they had seen.” Luke 19:38 b reminds us of Luke 2:14, though here we have “ peace in heaven” ( cf. Job 25:2), part of Lk.’ s paraphrase of Hosanna. Luke 19:39 f. Lk.... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Luke 19:39-40

How peevish were these wretched Pharisees, to envy our Saviour this little triumph, of coming into the city upon an ass’s colt, with garments under him instead of a saddle, or any stately furniture and trappings, and attended by a company of poor people throwing their garments and boughs of trees in the way! Yet these they would have silenced. Our Saviour’s reply, If these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out, seemeth to have been a proverbial speech used amongst them,... read more

DISCOURSE: 1566OUR LORD’S TRIUMPHANT ENTRY INTO JERUSALEMLuke 19:37-38. And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the Disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen; saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.DURING the greater part of our Lord’s ministry upon earth, he abstained, for the most part, from an avowal of his... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Luke 19:1-48

Now Jesus has entered into Jericho ( Luke 19:1 ).And as He is passing through the city,Behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans ( Luke 19:2 ),The city of Jericho was an oasis. It was a resort town; it was the Palm Springs, except even more lush. The winters can get quite cold in Jerusalem. They get even an occasional snow. But down in Jericho in the wintertime the weather is just really perfect. The days are usually clear. You get less than two inches of... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Luke 19:1-48

Luke 19:11 . He spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, to correct the fond error of those who thought he would reign on earth. This parable therefore differs from that of the talents, in Matthew 25:0., which was spoken in the temple to denounce judgment on those who had leagued to take away his life. That respected the high endowment of talents, one, two, and five in number. This speaks only of pounds, one of which, the sixtieth part of a talent, was given to each. Yet the... read more
