Barnes' Notes

<< Luke 24:15

Luke 24:17 >>

Luke 24:16

Their eyes were holden - This expression is used merely to denote that they did not "know" who he was. It does not appear that there was anything supernatural or miraculous in it, or that God used any power to blind them. It may easily be accounted for without any such supposition; for,

1.Jesus appeared "in another form" Mark 16:12 - that is, different from his "usual" appearance.

2.They were not "expecting" to see him - indeed, they did not suppose that he was alive, and it required the strongest evidence to convince them that he was really risen from the dead.
