Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 24:44

Jesus reminded the disciples that He had previously taught them that He would fulfill everything written about the Messiah in the Old Testament. The Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms were the three major divisions of the Hebrew Bible in Jesus’ day. Fulfillment was a divine necessity (Gr. dei). read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 24:44-49

The mission of Jesus’ disciples 24:44-49 (cf. Acts 1:3-8)All the Gospels contain instances of Jesus giving the Great Commission to His disciples, but evidently He did not just give it once. The contexts are different suggesting that He repeated these instructions on at least four separate occasions. This fact obviously reflects the importance of this instruction. The charge that Luke recorded here and in Acts 1:8 was apparently the last one that Jesus gave. The chronological order seems to have... read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:1-53

The Resurrection and the Ascension1-11. Two angels appear to the women at the sepulchre (Matthew 28:1-8; Mark 16:1-8: cp. John 20:1-2). See on Mt and Jn.12. Peter visits the sepulchre. See on John 20:3-10. This v. is wanting in some ancient authorities.13-35 The journey to Emmaus (Mark 16:12-13). Though alluded to in Mk, this beautiful narrative is peculiar to Lk. The conjecture of Theophylact that one of the two disciples was St. Luke still finds supporters, but is unlikely.13. Emmaus]... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Luke 24:44

(44) These are the words which I spake unto you.—As with the travellers to Emmaus, so now with the Ten who were present, our Lord leads His disciples to the true method of interpreting the prophecies which foretold the Christ. And that method was not an afterthought. It had been given in hints and outlines before; now they were led to see it in its fulness. The three-fold division of the Law, the Prophets (including most of the historic books), and the Psalms (the latter term standing for the... read more

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - Luke 24:1-53

The Easter Message Luke 24:2 (with Mark 16:3-4 ) Very remarkable that none of the Evangelists attempt to describe the Resurrection itself. They tell us all the details on either side of the stupendous fact but it they leave all untold. Just where you might have expected mythical books to have gone off into rhapsodical accounts they are utterly silent. He rose in the early dawn of that morning, but when or how is all untold. Certainly if they are legend writers they are the strangest legend... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Luke 24:1-53

Chapter 26THE FIRST LORD’S DAY.THE Sabbath came and went over the grave of its Lord, and silence reigned in Joseph’s garden, broken only by the mailed sentinels, who laughed and chatted by, the sealed sepulcher. As to the disciples, this high day is a dies non to them, for the curtain of a deep silence hides them from our view. Did they go up to the Temple to join in the Psalm, how "His mercy endureth forever?" Scarcely: their thoughts were transfixed to the cross, which haunted them like a... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - Luke 24:1-53

VII. His Resurrection and Ascension CHAPTER 24 1. The Resurrection. (Luke 24:1-12 ) 2. The Walk to Emmaus; the Appearance of the Risen Son of Man. (Luke 24:13-35 ) 3. The Appearance to the Eleven. (Luke 24:36-45 ) 4. The Commission. (Luke 24:46-48 ) 5. The Ascension. (Luke 24:49-53 .) The account of the Resurrection in Luke’s Gospel has also its characteristic features. He alone reports the full account of the walk to Emmaus. It is a precious story showing forth the fact that the risen... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Luke 24:44

24:44 {7} And he said unto them, These [are] the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and [in] the prophets, and [in] the psalms, concerning me.(7) The preaching of the gospel, which was promised to the prophets, and performed in his time, is committed unto the apostles, the sum of which is repentance and remission of sins. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:1-53

HE IS NOT HERE. BUT RISEN (vs.1-12) Though these dear women came to the grave very early in the morning the first day of the week, they were too late. Mary of Bethany had anointed the Lord Jesus before His death, and she had done this in view of His burial (John 12:7). Others perhaps had lesser intelligence, though no less love for Him. Elsewhere we read that the women had questioned among themselves as to who might roll the stone away from the grave (Mark 16:3), that they might anoint Him;... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Luke 24:1-53

FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK The order of our Lord’s appearances on this day was given in the comment on Matthew 28:0 , and need not be repeated. Indeed all of the events in the chapter were dealt with there, except the walk to Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35 ). Three score furlongs represent nearly eight miles (Luke 24:13 ). Cleophas, one of the two on this journey is not met with elsewhere, and is to be distinguished from the Cleophas of John 19:25 . Luke has sometimes been identified as the other, but... read more
