Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Luke 16:22

_ _ died — His burial was too unimportant to mention; while “the rich man died and was buried” — his carcass carried in pomp to its earthly resting-place.

_ _ in to Abraham’s bosom — as if seen reclining next to Him at the heavenly feast (Matthew 8:11).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Luke 16:19-31.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Luke 16:22

And the beggar — Worn out with hunger, and pain, and want of all things, died: and was carried by angels (amazing change of the scene!) into Abraham's bosom — So the Jews styled paradise; the place where the souls of good men remain from death to the resurrection. The rich man also died, and was buried — Doubtless with pomp enough, though we do not read of his lying in state; that stupid, senseless pageantry, that shocking insult on a poor, putrefying carcass, was reserved for our enlightened age!
