Geneva Study Bible

And {1} it came to pass, as he went into the house of {a} one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, that they watched him.

(1) The law of the very sabbath ought not to hinder the offices of charity.

(a) Either one of the elders, whom they called the sanhedrin, or one of the chiefs of the synagogue: for all the Pharisees were not chief men of the synagogue Joh 7:48; for this word Pharisee was the name of a sect, though it appears by viewing the whole history of the matter that the Pharisees had much authority.

People's New Testament

14:1 Teaching in Parables

SUMMARY OF LUKE 14:

Healing on the Sabbath. The Chief Seats at a Wedding Feast. The Rule for Inviting Guests. The Parable of the Great Supper and the Excuses. Bearing the Cross Essential to Discipleship. Counting the Cost.

One of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath. In despite of the rigid ideas of the Pharisees concerning work on the Sabbath, it was made a day of feasting. Meet the Sabbath with a lively hunger; let thy table be covered with fish, flesh, and generous wine is a rabbinical precept.

They watched him. Though pretending hospitality, on the watch for grounds of accusation.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

CHAPTER 14

Lu 14:1-24. Healing of a Dropsical Man, and Manifold Teachings at a Sabbath Feast.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

14:1-6 This Pharisee, as well as others, seems to have had an ill design in entertaining Jesus at his house. But our Lord would not be hindered from healing a man, though he knew a clamour would be raised at his doing it on the sabbath. It requires care to understand the proper connexion between piety and charity in observing the sabbath, and the distinction between works of real necessity and habits of self-indulgence. Wisdom from above, teaches patient perseverance in well-doing.


Mark 3:2 They were watching Him to see if He would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse Him. (NASB ©1995)

And it came to pass, as he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, that they watched him.

1 Christ heals the dropsy on the sabbath;
7 teaches humility;
12 to feast the poor;
15 under the parable of the great supper, shows how worldly minded men, who contemn the word of God, shall be shut out of heaven.
25 Those who will be his disciples, to bear their cross must make their accounts beforehand, lest with shame they revolt from him afterward;
34 and become altogether unprofitable, like salt that has lost its savour.
