Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Luke 23:43

_ _ Jesus said, etc. — The dying Redeemer speaks as if He Himself viewed it in this light. It was a “song in the night.” It ministered cheer to His spirit in the midnight gloom that now enwrapt it.

_ _ Verily I say unto thee — “Since thou speakest as to the king, with kingly authority speak I to thee.”

_ _ To-day — “Thou art prepared for a long delay before I come into My kingdom, but not a day’s delay shall there be for thee; thou shalt not be parted from Me even for a moment, but together we shall go, and with Me, ere this day expire, shalt thou be in Paradise” (future bliss, 2 Corinthians 12:4; Revelation 2:7). Learn (1) How “One is taken and another left”; (2) How easily divine teaching can raise the rudest and worst above the best instructed and most devoted servants of Christ; (3) How presumption and despair on a death hour are equally discountenanced here, the one in the impenitent thief, the other in his penitent fellow.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Luke 23:32-43.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Luke 23:43

And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in (i) paradise.

(i) God made the visible paradise in the eastern part of the world: but that which we behold with the eyes of our mind is the place of everlasting joy and salvation, through the goodness and mercy of God, a most pleasant rest for the souls of the godly, and a most quiet and joyful dwelling.
