Luke 17

  • Luke 17:11 - Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem to be crucified.
  • Luke 17:14 - Jesus is commanding them to do what was required under the Law of Moses. It would have been a big problem if they showed up to the priests and were unclean. These ten showed great faith in immediately turning to go see the priests.
  • Luke 17:17-18 - Jesus remarked that the others did not return to give glory to God - not that they did not turn and thank Him. Also, note that the Samaritan was the one who returned to worship Jesus.
  • Luke 17:20 - The kingdom would not come in some physically observable way.
  • Luke 17:22-37 - It seems likely this was talking about the destruction of Jerusalem.
    • Luke 17:36 - This verse is omitted in some modern translations, like the ESV. Some manuscripts have it, but the ones considered most reliable do not.
