Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:1

Luke's account in this chapter reveals: (1) how Jesus refuted the false charge of sabbath-breaking (Luke 6:1-5); (2) that he angered the Pharisees by healing a man with the withered hand on the sabbath day (Luke 6:6-11); (3) Jesus' appointment of the apostles after a night of prayer (Luke 6:12-19); and gives (4) the content of one of Jesus' sermons (Luke 6:20-49).REFUTING THE FALSE CHARGE OF SABBATH BREAKINGNow it came to pass on a sabbath, that he was going through the grainfields; and his... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:2

But certain of the Pharisees said, Why do ye that which it is not lawful to do on the sabbath day?The sabbath commandment given by God in the Decalogue was simple enough. "Remember the sabbath day to keep it holy." A cessation of all work was required, travel suspended, except for short distances; and all chores, such as gathering sticks, were forbidden. To divine regulations, the Pharisees had added dozens of others, resulting in the most ridiculous requirements. In their view, Jesus'... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:3

And Jesus answering them said, Have ye not read even this, what David did, when he was hungry, he, and they that were with him; how he entered into the house of God, and took and ate the showbread, and gave also to them that were with him; which it is not lawful to eat save for the priests alone?The purpose of Christ in this citation was not to equate his actions with those of David. David's actions were "not lawful," as the Lord here stated; Jesus' actions involved no guilt whatever. The Lord... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:5

And he said unto them, The Son of man is lord of the sabbath.There were a number of arguments by which Jesus responded to the Pharisees' false charge.(1) He showed the biased and unprincipled motives of those making the charge, as evidenced by their approval of a real violation on the part of David, and yet alleging against the Son of David a "violation" founded on their hair-splitting interpretations!(2) He showed that "on the sabbath day the priests in the temple profane the sabbath, and are... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:6

And it came to pass on another sabbath, that he entered into the synagogue and taught: and there was a man there, and his right hand was withered. And the scribes and the Pharisees watched him, whether he would heal on the sabbath; that they might find how to accuse him.ANOTHER SABBATH CONFRONTATIONThis miracle was performed under test conditions, with avowed enemies of Jesus present and observing it. Jesus, it would appear, healed every malady that came to his attention; for there seems to be... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:8

But he knew their thoughts; and he said to the man that had his hand withered, Rise up, and stand forth in the midst. And he arose and stood forth. And Jesus said unto them, I ask you, is it lawful on the sabbath to do good, or to do harm? to save a life, or destroy it?He knew their thoughts ... Why downgrade this by a comment that "This required no special knowledge on his part"?[9] The clear intention of Luke, in these words, was that of showing the omniscience of Jesus (John 2:25).To save a... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 6:10

And he looked round about them all, and said unto him, Stretch forth thy hand, And he did so; and his hand was restored, But they were filled with madness; and communed one with another what they might do to Jesus.They were filled with madness ... The expression here is very strong, indicating that those religious bigots were out of their rational minds with malicious fury. And why were they so angry?(1) Because he had shown his power to work a miracle; (2) because he had done so in... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Luke 6:1

Luke 6:1. On the second sabbath, &c.— On the first sabbath after the second of the passover. Commentators are much at a loss to understand what St. Luke means by the second sabbath after the first;— Σαββατω δευτεροπρωτω . Some think the proper translation of his words is, the first second-day's sabbath; understanding thereby, the ordinary sabbath which happened in the passover-week, and assigning the following reason of its name:—the law enjoined, that on the second day of the... read more
