The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Luke 24:36-40

The Last Appearances of Christ. Easter evening: v. 36. And as they thus spake, Jesus Himself stood in the midst of them and saith unto them, Peace be unto you! v. 37. But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. v. 38. And He said unto them, Why are ye troubled, and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? v. 39. Behold My hands and My feet, that it is I Myself; handle Me and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see Me have. v. 40. And... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Luke 24:41-49

Further proof of the Risen Savior's reality: v. 41. And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, He said unto them, Have ye here any meat? v. 42. And they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. v. 43. And He took it and did eat before them. v. 44. 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,... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Luke 24:13-35

B. Over the Despondency of Unbelief. Luke 24:13-451. The Appearing to the Disciples of Emmaus (Luke 24:13-35)13And, behold, two of them went [were journeying] that same day to a village called14Emmaus, which was from Jerusalem about threescore furlongs [stadia]. And theytalked together of all these things which had happened. 15And it came to pass, that, while they communed [were conversing] together and reasoned [or, were discussing], Jesus himself drew near, and went [journeyed] with them.... read more

2. The Appearing at Evening (Luke 24:36-45)(Parallel with Mark 16:14-18; John 20:19-23)36And as they thus spake, Jesus [he15] himself stood in the midst of them, and saithunto them, Peace be unto you.16 37But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposedthat they had seen a spirit. 38And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and whydo thoughts arise in your hearts [heart17]? 39Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 24:13-27

Luke THE RISEN LORD’S SELF-REVELATION TO WAVERING DISCIPLES Luk_24:13 - Luk_24:32 . These two disciples had left their companions after Peter’s return from the sepulchre and before Mary Magdalene hurried in with her tidings that she had seen Jesus. Their coming away at such a crisis, like Thomas’s absence that day, shows that the scattering of the sheep was beginning to follow the smiting of the shepherd. The magnet withdrawn, the attracted particles fall apart. What arrested that process?... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 24:28-29

Luke THE RISEN LORD’ S SELF-REVELATION TO WAVERING DISCIPLES DETAINING CHRIST Luk_24:28 - Luk_24:29 . Of course, a chance companion, picked up on the road, is dropped when the journey’s end is reached. When these two disciples had come to Emmaus, perhaps arriving at some humble inn or caravanserai, or perhaps at the home of one of them, it would have been an unmannerly intrusion for the Stranger who had met them on the road, and could accompany them there without rudely forcing Himself on... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 24:30-31

Luke THE RISEN LORD’ S SELF-REVELATION TO WAVERING DISCIPLES THE MEAL AT EMMAUS Luk_24:30 - Luk_24:31 . Perhaps the most striking characteristic of the Gospel accounts of our Lord’s intercourse with His disciples, in the interval between the Resurrection and His Ascension, is the singular union of mystery and simplicity which they present. There is a certain air of remoteness and depth over all the intercourse, as if it meant more, and was intended to teach more, than appears on the... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 24:34

Luke PETER ALONE WITH JESUS Luk_24:34 . The other appearances of the risen Lord to individuals on the day of Resurrection are narrated with much particularity, and at considerable length. John gives us the lovely account of our Lord’s conversation with Mary Magdalene, Luke gives us in full detail the story of the interview with the two travellers on the road to Emmaus. Here is another appearance, known to ‘the eleven, and them that were with them’ on the Resurrection evening, and enumerated... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 24:36-47

Luke THE TRIUMPHANT END Luk_24:36 - Luk_24:53 . There are no marks of time in this passage, and, for anything that appears, the narrative is continuous, and the Ascension might have occurred on the evening of the Resurrection. But neither is there anything to forbid interpreting this close of Luke’s Gospel by the fuller details contained in the beginning of his other treatise, the Acts, where the space of forty days interposes between the Resurrection and the Ascension. It is but reasonable... read more
