Luke 24:22 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 24:22

Yea, and certain women also of our company
Who came with them from Galilee, who were of the same religion, professed the same faith, and belonged to the same society and community; who they were, and their names, see ( Luke 24:10 ) . made us astonished;
surprised us, with an account they brought, so that we could not, nor can we now tell, what to think or say of it; it is such an one, we know not how to believe, nor to disprove; it is we fear too good to be true, and should it be as they report, it is amazing indeed: which were early at the sepulchre;
of the person now mentioned, Jesus of Nazareth; even this very morning, by break of day, at least at sunrise, whither they went to anoint his body, thinking nothing at all about the resurrection of him.

Luke 24:22 In-Context

20 and how our chief priests and leaders handed Him over to be sentenced to death, and they crucified Him.

21 But we were hoping that He was the One who was about to redeem Israel. Besides all this, it's the third day since these things happened.

22 Moreover, some women from our group astounded us. They arrived early at the tomb,

23 and when they didn't find His body, they came and reported that they had seen a vision of angels who said He was alive.

24 Some of those who were with us went to the tomb and found it just as the women had said, but they didn't see Him."
