Luke 10:6

Luke 10:6

4 ^aCarry neither money bag, knapsack, nor sandals; and ^bgreet no one along the road.

5 ^aBut whatever house you enter, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’

6 And if a son of peace is there, your peace will rest on it; if not, it will return to you.

7 ^aAnd remain in the same house, ^beating and drinking such things as they give, for ^cthe laborer is worthy of his wages. Do not go from house to house.

8 Whatever city you enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you.

9 ^aAnd heal the sick there, and say to them, ^b‘The kingdom of God has come near to you.’

Barnes' Notes

<< Luke 10:5

Luke 10:7 >>

The son of peace - That is, if the "house" or "family" be "worthy," or be disposed to receive you in "peace" and kindness. See Matthew 10:13. "The son of peace" means one "disposed" to peace, or peaceful and kind in his disposition. Compare Matthew 1:1.
