# Lu 13:31
\\There came certain of the Pharisees.\\ Their object was to
frighten Jesus away, and hence they asserted that Herod, Herod
Antipas, would kill him. He was the tetrarch of Galilee and
ruler of the country beyond the Jordan, who slew John the
Baptist.
See note on "Mt 2:1"
(PNT 279)
02406
# Lu 13:32-33
\\Tell that fox.\\ Herod's most marked characteristic was
unscrupulous cunning. The Lord uses the term to indicate that he
understood the scheme. It was an artifice of Herod and the
Pharisees to get him away. Herod was afraid to kill him on
account of his popularity.
\\I perform cures to day.\\ The meaning is, "I will attend to
my present work here, which is only for a little season,"
\\and the third [day]\\, in a short time.
\\I am perfected.\\ By the suffering at Jerusalem. See
# Heb 2:10
In other words, he will go freely about his work, but will soon
be put to death, but not by Herod, who had no jurisdiction at
Jerusalem. In that city he would die, for "It cannot be that a
prophet should perish out of Jerusalem.

# Lu 14:1
SUMMARY OF LUKE 14
\\Teaching in Parables\\
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.
(PNT 280)
02411
# Lu 14:2-6
\\A certain man before him who had the dropsy.\\ Either a
guest or one who came to be healed.
(PNT 280)
02412
# Lu 14:3
\\Is it lawful?\\ Conscious that they were watching him, he
asked them a question which they declined to answer. The
"tradition" said it was unlawful.
(PNT 280)
02414
# Lu 14:5
\\Which of you shall have a donkey?\\
See note on "Mt 12:11"
(PNT 280)
02416
# Lu 14:7-11
\\Put forth a parable.\\ In this case a spiritual meaning
lies under the social instruction.
\\Chose out the chief places.\\ The places of honour at the
table. Certain seats were considered the most honourable. The
Saviour's instruction insists upon humility. The spiritual lesson
is that one must not, like Diotrephes, seek the pre-eminence,
but be content to work in lowly places, from whence he can be
invited higher if his merits so demand.
# 3Jo 1:9
(PNT 281)
02420
# Lu 14:11
\\Whoever exalteth himself\\, etc. The Lord states a general
law, but the final adjustment is often left to another state of
being. Many a preacher has failed because he sought a place that
was beyond his ability.
(PNT 281)
02421
# Lu 14:12-14
\\When thou givest a dinner.\\ To give dinners for the sake
of earthly reward is worldly; to feed the needy is heavenly, and
will be rewarded in heaven.
(PNT 281)
02425
# Lu 14:16
\\A certain man gave a great supper.\\ This parable was
spoken in reply to the remark in v. 15, and shows that the world
is not ready to "eat bread in the kingdom of God." Compare
Mt 22:1-14.
(PNT 281)
02426
# Lu 14:17
\\Come; for all things are now ready.\\ The second
invitation, which it is the usual course to give in the East.
John bade all get ready; and the Gospel of Christ bade all to
come. Such is still the Gospel message.
(PNT 281)
02427
# Lu 14:18
\\Began to make excuse.\\ The excuses show that they did not
wish to be guests.
\\The first said.\\ The first pleads landed property; the
second, business; the third, social considerations; none of them
good excuses.
(PNT 281)
02430
# Lu 14:21
\\Go out quickly.\\ To another class of persons. The first,
who despised the invitation, are now rejected. The Jews are
primarily meant.
\\The poor, and the maimed\\, etc. An abundant class in the
East, a country destitute of alms-houses and hospitals. These
probably represent the publicans and sinners.
(PNT 281)
02432
# Lu 14:23
\\Go out quickly into the streets and lanes.\\ Far away--to
the Gentiles.
\\Compel [them] to come in.\\ Use the constraining power of
the love of the gospel.
(PNT 281)
02433
# Lu 14:24
\\None of those men who were invited.\\ They were excluded by
their own act. They had refused to come. The stubborn Jews
missed the slightest taste; so do all like them.
(PNT 281-282)
# Mt 22:1-14
02435
# Lu 14:26-27
\\If any [man] cometh to me.\\
See note on "Mt 10:37"
See note on "Mt 10:38"
\\Hateth not his father.\\ In just the same sense that he
hates \\his own life also.\\ That is, these must all be given
up, turned away from, if we have to choose between them and
Christ.
(PNT 282)
02437
# Lu 14:28-33
\\Sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost?\\ This
calculation of what any enterprise or step will require before
entering upon it is the part of wisdom. So, too, a disciple of
Christ should count the cost. It is well to understand that
every obstacle to the service of Christ must be given up.
(PNT 282-283)
02443
# Lu 14:34-35
\\Salt [is] good.\\
See note on "Mt 5:13"
See note on "Mr 9:50"
The Christian is the salt of the earth; the
\\savour\\ is the spirit of self-sacrifice; if it is
wanting, his life is worthless.
(PNT 283)
02445
# Lu 15:1
SUMMARY OF LUKE 15
\\Joy of Repenting Sinners\\
The Publicans and Sinners
The Pharisees and Scribes
The Lost Sheep
The Lost Coin
The Lost Son
In the Far Country
Feeding on Husks
Coming to Himself
The Father's Welcome
The Elder Brother
\\Then drew near to him.\\ At the period of his ministry
these classes were flocking in great numbers to hear him.
\\Tax collectors.\\ Gatherers of the Roman tribute, generally
corrupt, universally despised, usually Jews by birth.
\\Sinners.\\ Persons excommunicated from the synagogues and
usually held as outcasts.
(PNT 283)
02446
# Lu 15:2
\\Pharisees.\\ The orthodox leaders.
\\Scribes.\\ Primarily copyists, but also the great
theologians.
\\Eateth with them.\\ That he should be on social terms with
sinners the Pharisees could not overlook.
(PNT 283)
02448
# Lu 15:4
\\What man of you, having an hundred sheep?\\ Three parables
spoken in succession to show how cordially "God receiveth
sinners." The shepherd who loseth one sheep out of the flock of
a hundred will leave the rest and go to seek the straying one.
(PNT 283-284)
02449
# Lu 15:5
\\Layeth [it] on his shoulders.\\ A common custom with
Eastern shepherds.
\\Rejoicing.\\ So every servant of God should rejoice at the
return of a sinner.
(PNT 283-284)
