15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.
15 And you, Capernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades.
15 "And you, Capernaum! Do you think you're about to be promoted to heaven? Think again. You're on a mud slide to hell.
15 And you, Capernaum, who are exalted to heaven, will be brought down to Hades.
15 And you people of Capernaum, will you be honored in heaven? No, you will go down to the place of the dead. "
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Luke 10:15
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.
