Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Luke 19:8-10

_ _ stood — before all.

_ _ said unto the Lord, Behold, Lord — Mark how frequently Luke uses this title, and always where lordly authority, dignity, or power is intended.

_ _ if I have — that is, “so far as I have,” for evidently the “if” is so used (as in Philippians 4:8).

_ _ taken by false accusation — defrauded, overcharged (Luke 3:12, Luke 3:13).

_ _ fourfold — The Roman law required this; the Jewish law, but the principal and a fifth more (Numbers 5:7). There was no demand made for either; but, as if to revenge himself on his hitherto reigning sin (see on John 20:28), and to testify the change he had experienced, besides surrendering the half of his fair gains to the poor, he voluntarily determines to give up all that was ill-gotten, quadrupled. He gratefully addressed this to the “Lord,” to whom he owed the wonderful change.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Luke 19:1-10.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Luke 19:8

And Zaccheus stood — Showing by his posture, his deliberate, purpose and ready mind, and said, Behold, Lord, I give — I determine to do it immediately.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Luke 19:8

(3) And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord; Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken any thing from any man by (b) false accusation, I restore [him] fourfold.

(3) The example of true repentance is known by the effect.

(b) By falsely accusing any man: and this agrees most fitly to the master of the tax gatherers: for commonly they have this practice among them when they rob and spoil the commonwealth, that they claim to be concerned for nothing else except the profit of the commonwealth, and under this pretence they are thieves, and to such an extent that if men reprove them and try to redress their robbery and thievery, they cry out that the commonwealth is hindered.
