Lucas 24:22-48 RVA

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Luke 24:48-49

Luke THE TRIUMPHANT END CHRIST’S WITNESSES Luk_24:48 - Luk_24:49 . Luke’s account of the Resurrection and subsequent forty days is so constructed as to culminate in this appointment of the disciples to their high functions and equipment for it, by the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Evangelist has evidently in view his second ‘treatise,’ and is here preparing the link of connection between it and the Gospel. Hence this very condensed summary of many conversations lays stress upon these... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 24:13-27

Walking with the Risen Lord Luke 24:13-27 This exquisite idyll of the Resurrection is too lifelike and natural to have been invented. The sorrowful walk; the reasonings; the wonder that anyone could have been for ever so short a time in Jerusalem without knowing of the events that filled their souls; the lingering hope; the despair that the third day was waning and He had not come; the clue of the morning announcement which had not been followed up; the burning heart-all these touches are... read more

“Abide with Us” Luke 24:28-35 Our Lord must be invited and constrained. He will not impose Himself on an unwilling host; but how glad He is to enter where a welcome awaits! He turns ordinary meals into sacraments; common rooms into royal chambers: and the homeliest things into symbols of the eternal. He sat with them, then vanished; but He was no less truly with them when He ceased to be seen-and all to teach them that when He had passed permanently from their sight He would be nearer than... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 24:36-43

“Peace Be unto You” Luke 24:36-43 Jesus Himself! We need nothing else when we are terrified and afraid. You may be fearing the consequences of your sin; fearing the approach of your enemy; fearing the future with its unknown contingencies; but Jesus Himself is the antidote of fear. He keeps the soul that trusts Him within the double doors of peace. See Isaiah 26:3 . This was not an apparition, but the clothing of the spiritual body, which evidently repeats the general outlines of the... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Luke 24:44-53

“Witnesses of These Things” Luke 24:44-53 The risen Savior is the key to Scripture. The pages of Holy Writ need the illumination that falls from His face. Whenever you open the Old Testament, described here under its customary Hebrew threefold division, be sure to ask Him to open your understanding also! Repentance is turning from sin. It is the act of the will. In remitting sin Christ not only forgives, but stands between the sinner and the consequences. The “beginning” must be Jerusalem,... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Luke 24:1-53

No human eye saw the resurrection. The women came early, but only to find the stone rolled away. The record of those earliest experiences is full of touching beauty. Luke alone gives us the story of the walk to Emmaus, in which disappointed disciples poured out their story, and in which at last He revealed Himself to them as the Risen One. Much mystery still surrounds the fact of the resurrection, but the fact abides. There are suggestive points, moreover, in this account of His appearances.... read more

Christ's Missionary Command as Seen in the Early Church Matthew 28:18-20 ; Mark 16:15-20 ; Luke 24:45-49 INTRODUCTORY WORDS As the time came for the Lord to leave, and to return to His Father, He pressed upon the disciples the great yearning's of His soul toward a world lost in sin; and then gave command that the Gospel should be preached to all the world. Let us, for a moment, as introductory to what shall follow, study the three records where this last command was given. 1. The command... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Luke 24:29

ABIDE WITH US‘Abide with us: for it is toward evening, and the day is far spent.’ Luke 24:29‘Abide with us.’—It is the prayer of two men; two men to whom God came. It is the only Easter-tide prayer recorded for us, and it is an ideal prayer for ourselves. I. The journey to Emmaus is as the journey of life.—We walk along by twos, or, more often, all alone. And life is perplexing. Things outside trouble us, and sometimes things within. We don’t understand. Things seem somehow as if they could... read more

BURNING HEARTS‘And they said one to another, Did not our heart burn within us, while He talked with us by the way, and while He opened to us the scriptures?’ Luke 24:32 It is surely one of the lessons to be drawn from this narrative of the Self-revelation to Cleopas and his fellow-wayfarer that these fires are not deceptive, but are incentives to advance from the oppressiveness of doubt and uncertainty to an appreciation of the glorious truth. If our natures are burning, is it not because God... read more

RISEN INDEED‘The Lord is risen indeed.’ Luke 24:34 I. The fact.—The Christian Church is founded on the definite historic fact of Christ’s Resurrection. Socrates hesitates and confesses he does not know, Christ solves the problems of the ages and says He has the keys of death and of Hades. II. The power.—Facts are the greatest of all powers. ‘The power of His Resurrection’ is a wonder-working power. It created the Christian Church. We know certain men lived and wrought because of the power... read more
