6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.
6 If someone who promotes peace is there, your peace will rest on them; if not, it will return to you.
6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest upon him. But if not, it will return to you.
6 If your greeting is received, then it's a good place to stay. But if it's not received, take it back and get out. Don't impose yourself.
6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on it; if not, it will return to you.
6 If those who live there are peaceful, the blessing will stand; if they are not, the blessing will return to you.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Luke 10:6
Commentary on Luke 10:1-16
(Read Luke 10:1-16)
Christ sent the seventy disciples, two and two, that they might strengthen and encourage one another. The ministry of the gospel calls men to receive Christ as a Prince and a Saviour; and he will surely come in the power of his Spirit to all places whither he sends his faithful servants. But the doom of those who receive the grace of God in vain, will be very fearful Those who despise the faithful ministers of Christ, who think meanly of them, and look scornfully upon them, will be reckoned as despisers of God and Christ.
