Context of Luke 24:26
24Then some of those who were with us went to the tomb, and found it just as the women had said, but they did not see him.” 25So he said to them, “You foolish people – how slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Wasn’t it necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and enter into his glory?” 27Then beginning with Moses and all the prophets, he interpreted to them the things written about himself in all the scriptures. 28So they approached the village where they were going. He acted as though he wanted to go farther,

Commentaries on Luke 24:26
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 26Ought not Christ to have suffered - , Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer. This was the way in which sin must be expiated, and, without this, no soul could have been saved. The suffering Messiah is he alone by whom Israel and the world can be saved.Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 26Ought not Christ - Ought not the “Messiah.” Was there not evidence that he would do it? and was it not indispensable that he should, in order to fulfil the prophecies?

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 13-27Verses 13-27 This appearance of Jesus to the two disciples going to Emmaus, happened the same day that he rose from the dead. It well becomes the disciples of Christ to talk together of his death and resurrection; thus they may improve one another's knowledge, refresh one another's memory, and stir up each other's devout affections. And where but two together are well employed in work of that kind, he will come to them, and make a third. Those who seek…Read the comment
- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 25-26The prophets wrote that the Christ (the Messiah, God’s chosen king) would have to suffer. The crucifixion did not show that Jesus was not the Christ. Instead, it confirmed that he is the Christ, because Scripture had already said that the Christ would suffer and die. Jesus corrected the two disciples because they did not understand from Scripture that this had to happen (see Isaiah 50:4–9; 52:13–53:12; Psalms 2, 16, 22, 118; compare Luke 18:32; 20:17…Read the comment
