Scofield's Reference Notes - Luke 24:51

Spurgeon's Verse Expositions of the Bible - Luke 24:40

The Wounds of Jesus January 30th, 1859 by C. H. SPURGEON (1834-1892) "He shewed them his hands and his feet." Luke 24:40 . I have selected this sentence as the text, although I shall not strictly adhere to it. What was to be seen on Christ's hands and feet? We are taught that the prints of the nails were visible, and that in his side there was still the gash of the spear. For did he not say to Thomas? "Reach hither thy finger and behold my hands, and reach hither thy hand and thrust it into... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Luke 24:1-53

Chapter 24Now upon the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they came to the sepulchre, bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain others with them.

Luke 24:13-35Two of them went that same day to a village called EmmausThe journey to EmmausI.WE SEE IN THIS APPEARANCE, AS IN THE OTHERS, SOMETHING VERY CHARACTERISTIC OF OUR LORD’S HABITS AND WAYS DURING HIS LIFETIME, His disciples and followers were always craving for publicity and display. He was always retiring from too much of that, carrying on His work as quietly as possible. And so here. Jesus rises alone--at the break of day. No mortal sees Him put on immortality. Bright angels stand as... read more

Observe, that when this person appeared in the room, the first token that it was Jesus was His speech: they were to have the evidence of hearing: He used the same speech.

Luke 24:50-53While He blessed them He was parted from themThe ascensionI.CONSIDER THE ASCENSION AS THE CROWNING FACT OF CHRIST’S LIFE. It was the consummation of all His glorious work for man, and henceforth man through Him becomes a conqueror too. “He led captivity captive, He received gifts for men.” And with the baptism of these we are conquerors, in our temptations over the devil, in our gardens of agony over sorrow, and in the end over death and the grave, when we shall ascend to be with... read more
