Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

See commentary on Luke 24:17-24.


Luke 24:21

_ _ we trusted, etc. — They expected the promised Deliverance at His hand, but in the current sense of it, not by His death.

_ _ besides all this — not only did His death seem to give the fatal blow to their hopes, but He had been two days dead already, and this was the third. It is true, they add, some of our women gave us a surprise, telling us of a vision of angels they had at the empty grave this morning that said He was alive, and some of ourselves who went thither confirmed their statement; but then Himself they saw not. A doleful tale truly, told out of the deepest despondency.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Luke 24:13-35.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Luke 24:21

To — day is the third day — The day he should have risen again, if at all.
