41 And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat?
41 And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?"
41 And while they still disbelieved for joy and were marveling, he said to them, "Have you anything here to eat?"
41 They still couldn't believe what they were seeing. It was too much; it seemed too good to be true.
41 But while they still did not believe for joy, and marveled, He said to them, "Have you any food here?"
41 Still they stood there in disbelief, filled with joy and wonder. Then he asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?"
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Luke 24:41
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.
