Lucas 7:1-30 NVI

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Luke 7:21-23

Christ's reference to the prophecy: v. 21. And in that same hour He cured many of their infirmities and plagues and of evil spirits, and unto many that were blind He gave sight. v. 22. Then Jesus, answering, said unto them, Go your way, and tell John what things ye have seen and heard; how that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, to the poor the Gospel is preached. v. 23. And blessed is he whosoever shall not be offended in Me. The... read more

Christ's testimony concerning John: v. 24. And when the messengers of John were departed, He began to speak unto the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness for to see? A reed shaken with the wind? v. 25. But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they which are gorgeously appareled, and live delicately, are in kings' courts. v. 26. But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? Yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet. v. 27. ... read more

Further praise of John: v. 28. For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he. v. 29. And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John. v. 30. But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him. High praise indeed: All the prophets of old merely... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Luke 7:1-10

3. The First Return to Capernaum. The First-fruits of the Believing Gentiles (Luke 7:1-10)(Parallel: Matthew 8:5-13.)1Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.2And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.3And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the [om., the] elders of the Jews,beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant. 4And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly... read more

4. A second Excursion from Capernaum. The Son of Man manifested as Compassionate High-Priest at Nain’s Gate and Simon’s Table; but at the same time as the Holy Messiah as opposed to the Offence taken by John, the People, and the Pharisees.Luke 7:11-50a. The Young Man At Nain (Luke 7:11-17)(Gospel on the 16th Sunday after Trinity.)11And it came to pass the day after, that he went into a city called Nain; and many [a good many]of his disciples went with him, and much people. 12Now when he came... read more

b. The Embassy Of The Baptist (Luke 7:18-35)(Comp. Matthew 11:2-19 in part, Gospel for the 3d Sunday in Advent.)18And the disciples of John shewed him of all these things. 19And John calling unto him two of his disciples sent them to Jesus [the Lord, V. O.2], saying, Art thou he that should come? or look we for another [are we to look, προζδοκῶμεν, prob. subj.]? 20When the men were come unto him, they said, John [the] Baptist hath sent us unto thee, saying, Art thou he that should come? or look... read more

Luke WORTHY-NOT WORTHY Luk_7:4 , Luk_7:6 - Luk_7:7 . A Roman centurion, who could induce the elders of a Jewish village to approach Jesus on his behalf, must have been a remarkable person. The garrison which held down a turbulent people was not usually likely to be much loved by them. But this man, about whom the incident with which our texts are connected is related, was obviously one of the people of whom that restless age had many, who had found out that his creed was outworn, and who... read more

Luke JESUS AT THE BIER Luk_7:13 - Luk_7:15 . We owe our knowledge of this incident to Luke only. He is the Evangelist who specially delights in recording the gracious relations of our Lord with women, and he is also the Evangelist who delights in telling us of unasked miracles which Christ performed. Both of these characteristics unite in this story, and it may have been these, rather than the fact of its being a narrative of a resurrection, that found for it a place in this Gospel. Be that... read more

Luke JOHN’S DOUBTS AND CHRIST’S PRAISE Luk_7:18 - Luk_7:28 . We take three stages in this passage-the pathetic message from the prisoner, Christ’s double answer to it, and His grand eulogium on John. I. The message from the prisoner. Had mists of doubt crept over John’s clear conviction that Jesus was the Messiah? Some have thought it incredible that the man who had seen the descending dove, and heard the voice proclaiming ‘This is My beloved Son,’ should ever have wavered. But surely our... read more
