Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Luke 24:13-35

This appearance of Christ to the two disciples going to Emmaus was mentioned, and but just mentioned, before (Mark 16:12); here it is largely related. It happened the same day that Christ rose, the first day of the new world that rose with him. One of these two disciples was Cleopas or Alpheus, said by the ancients to be the brother of Joseph, Christ's supposed father; who the other was is not certain. Some think it was Peter; it should seem indeed that Christ did appear particularly to Peter... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Luke 24:13-35

24:13-35 Now--look you--on that same day two of them were on the way to a village called Emmaus, which is about seven miles from Jerusalem; and they talked with each other about all the things which had happened. As they talked about them, and discussed them, Jesus himself came up to them and joined them on their way. But their eyes were fastened so that they did not recognize him. He said to them, "What words are these that you are exchanging with each other as you walk?" And they stood with... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:13

And behold two of them went that same day ,.... Two of the disciples, as the Persic version reads; not of the eleven apostles, for it is certain that one of them was not an apostle; but two of the seventy disciples, or of the society of the hundred and twenty that were together: one of these was Cleophas or Alphaeus, as appears from Luke 24:18 the other is, by some, thought to be Luke the Evangelist, as Theophylact on the place observes, who, out of modesty, mentions not his name; others... read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:14

And they talked together ,.... As they went along, on their journey: of all these things which had happened ; concerning their dear Lord and master, Jesus Christ; how that he had been betrayed by Judas, one of his disciples; had been led bound, first to Annas, and then Caiaphas, the high priest, in whose palace he had been condemned to death; how that he was delivered by the chief priests and elders, to Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor of whom they requested, that he might be... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:15

And it came to pass, that while they communed together ,.... About the above said things: and reasoned ; with one another; about the truth and credibility of the late report: Jesus himself drew near : the Persic version adds, "suddenly"; he came up at once to them, as if he had been a traveller on the road, and overtook them: and went with them ; joined himself in company to them, and travelled with them. read more

John Gill

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 24:16

But their eyes were holden , &c.; The Ethiopic version adds, "and were covered"; and the Arabic version renders it, "now he had veiled their eyes", ascribing it to Christ; and the Persic version renders it, "and the eyes of the disciples were shut": to me it seems, that their eyes: were held downwards; or they kept looking upon the ground as they walked, which was a posture suitable to their melancholy spirits; and there might be a peculiar influence of divine power and providence, so... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:13

Behold, two of them - This long and interesting account is not mentioned by Matthew nor John, and is only glanced at by Mark, Mark 16:12 , Mark 16:13 . One of these disciples was Cleopas, Luke 24:18 , and the other is supposed by many learned men, both ancient and modern, to have been Luke himself. See the sketch of his life prefixed to these notes. Some of the ancient versions have called the other disciple Ammaus and Ammaon, reading the verse thus: Behold two of them, Ammaus and... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:15

And reasoned - Συζητειν , concerning the probability or improbability of Christ being the Messiah, or of his resurrection from the dead. It was a laudable custom of the Jews, and very common also, to converse about the law in all their journeyings; and now they had especial reason to discourse together, both of the law and the prophets, from the transactions which had recently taken place. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:16

Their eyes were holden - It does not appear that there was any thing supernatural here, for the reason why these persons (who were not apostles, see Luke 24:33 ;) did not recollect our Lord is given by Mark, Mark 16:12 , who says that Christ appeared to them in another form. read more

John Calvin

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 24:13

Verse 13 Luke 24:13.And lo, two of them. Although Mark touches slightly and briefly on this narrative, and Matthew and John say not a single word respecting it; yet as it is highly useful to be known and worthy of being remembered, it is not without reason that Luke treats it with so much exactness. But I have already mentioned on various occasions, that each of the Evangelists had his portion so appropriately assigned to him by the Spirit of God, that what is not to be found in one or two of... read more
