Context of Luke 9:44

42Now while he was still approaching, the demon slammed him to the ground and threw him into a convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy and gave him back to his father. 43And they were all amazed at the greatness of God. But while everyone was astonished at all that He was doing, He said to His disciples, “As for you, let these words sink into your ears: for the Son of Man is going to be handed over to men.” 45But they did not understand this statement, and it was concealed from them so that they would not comprehend it; and they were afraid to ask Him about this statement. 46Now an argument started among them as to which of them might be the greatest.

Commentaries on Luke 9:44

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 44Let these sayings sink down into your ears - Or, put these words into your ears. To other words, you may lend occasional attention, but to what concerns my sufferings and death you must ever listen. Let them constantly occupy a place in your most serious meditations and reflections.Read the comment
• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 44Let these sayings - Probably this refers to the “sayings of the people,” who had seen his miracles, and who on that account had praised and glorified God. On that ground they had acknowledged him to be the Christ. As if he had said, “I am about to die. “You” will then be disconsolate, and perhaps doubtful about my being the Christ. “Then” do you remember these miracles, and the confessions of the people - the evidence which I gave you that I was from…Read the comment
• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 43-50Verses 43-50 This prediction of Christ's sufferings was plain enough, but the disciples would not understand it, because it agreed not with their notions.
