42 And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. 43 And he took it, and did eat before them.
42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish,
42 They gave him a piece of leftover fish they had cooked. 43 He took it and ate it right before their eyes.
42 So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish and some honeycomb. 43 And He took it and ate in their presence.
42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he ate it as they watched.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Luke 24:42-43
Commentary on Luke 24:36-49
(Read Luke 24:36-49)
Jesus appeared in a miraculous manner, assuring the disciples of his peace, though they had so lately forsaken him, and promising spiritual peace with every blessing. Many troublesome thoughts which disquiet our minds, rise from mistakes concerning Christ. All the troublesome thoughts which rise in our hearts at any time, are known to the Lord Jesus, and are displeasing to him. He spake with them on their unreasonable unbelief. Nothing had passed but what was foretold by the prophets, and necessary for the salvation of sinners. And now all men should be taught the nature and necessity of repentance, in order to the forgiveness of their sins. And these blessings were to be sought for, by faith in the name of Jesus. Christ by his Spirit works on the minds of men. Even good men need to have their understandings opened. But that we may have right thoughts of Christ, there needs no more than to be made to understand the Scriptures.
