Luke 10:12-16 KJV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Luke 10:1-16

We have here the sending forth of seventy disciples, two and two, into divers parts of the country, to preach the gospel, and to work miracles in those places which Christ himself designed to visit, to make way for his entertainment. This is not taken notice of by the other evangelists: but the instructions here given them are much the same with those given to the twelve. Observe, I. Their number: they were seventy. As in the choice of twelve apostles Christ had an eye to the twelve... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Luke 10:1-16

10:1-16 After these things the Lord appointed other seventy men and sent them out in twos ahead of him into every town and place where he intended to go. "The harvest is great," he said to them, "but the workers are few. Pray then the Lord of the harvest to send out workers for the harvest. Go! Look you--I am sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves. Do not take a purse or a wallet or sandals. Greet no one on the road. Into whatever house you go, say first of all, 'Peace to this... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 10:12

But I say unto you ,.... The same that he said to the twelve apostles, when he sent them out, Matthew 10:15 , that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom than for that city . By "that day" is meant, the famous day to come, the last day; the day of judgment, as it is expressed in Matthew; and so the Ethiopic version reads here, "it shall be better in the day of judgment". Sodom was a very wicked city, and was destroyed by fire from heaven for its iniquity, and its inhabitants... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 10:13

Woe unto thee Chorazin ,.... See Gill on Matthew 11:21 . Woe unto thee Bethsaida ; a city of Galilee, a fishing town, from whence it has its name, and was the native place of those two fishermen, Peter and Andrew: very likely Chorazin was near it, since they are here, and in Matthew, mentioned together; and woe is pronounced upon them both for their impenitence and unbelief, which were attended with aggravating circumstances: for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 10:14

But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment ,.... Or "in the day of judgment", as read the Syriac, Persic, Ethiopic, and Gothic versions; and as it is in Matthew 11:22 than for you ; the inhabitants of Chorazin and Bethsaida, who will be more severely punished than these Gentile cities; for by how much greater were their light, privileges, and advantages against which they sinned, by so much will be their severer punishment. read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 10:15

And thou Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven ,.... Referring either to the situation of it, which was on a very high hill; or to its privileges, through the ministry and miracles of Christ; or the phrase may be expressive of the pride and loftiness of the inhabitants of it, who were elated with the mercies they enjoyed, it being a most delightful, pleasant, and comfortable place to live in, as its name signifies. It was a famous port, commodiously situated by the sea of Tiberias; and, as... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 10:16

He that heareth you, heareth me ,.... This is said for the encouragement of the seventy disciples, that though they would be rejected by some, they would be received by others, who would hear them, and embrace their doctrine, as if the Messiah himself had been among them; they looking upon them as representing him: and so Christ himself considers them as ambassadors in his name, and as representing his person, taking what is done to them, as done to himself; See Gill on Matthew 10:40 . ... read more
