Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Luke 10:20

_ _ rejoice not, etc. — that is, not so much. So far from forbidding it, He takes occasion from it to tell them what had been passing in His own mind. But as power over demons was after all intoxicating, He gives them a higher joy to balance it, the joy of having their names in Heaven’s register (Philippians 4:3).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Luke 10:17-24.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Luke 10:20

Rejoice not so much that the devils are subject to you, as that your names are written in heaven — Reader, so is thine, if thou art a true, believer. God grant it may never be blotted out!
