Luke 24:44

42 So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish¹ and some honeycomb.

43 ^aAnd He took it and ate in their presence.

The Scriptures Opened

44 Then He said to them, ^a“These are the words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things must be fulfilled which were written in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms concerning Me.”

45 And ^aHe opened their understanding, that they might comprehend the Scriptures.

46 Then He said to them, ^a“Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,

47 and that repentance and ^aremission of sins should be preached in His name ^bto all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

48 And ^ayou are witnesses of these things.

49 ^aBehold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city¹ of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.”

Luke 24:44-48

Luke 24:44-48 And he said unto them. Between verses 43 and 44, Luke passes over an interval of weeks, and many appearances of the Risen Christ, to come at once to the event of his Ascension. The Lord, about to send them forth to preach, "opens their mind that they might understand the Scriptures", and then repeats the Commission, before given in Galilee. He requires that (1) Repentance, (2) Remission of Sins, (3) Shall be Preached in his Name, (4) Unto All Nations, (5) Beginning at Jerusalem. This was literally obeyed on the day of Pentecost.
