Luke 24:43 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 24:43

And he took it, and did eat before them.
] That is, he took both the fish, and the honeycomb, and ate of them before them, they looking on all the while; and which was a proof of his being truly risen from the dead, and not a spectre, or apparition, and which they failed not afterwards to make use of; see ( Acts 10:41 ) . The Vulgate Latin, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions add, "he took the rest, or what remained, and gave it to them".

Luke 24:43 In-Context

41 But while they still could not believe because of [their] joy and were amazed, He asked them, "Do you have anything here to eat?"

42 So they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish,

43 and He took it and ate in their presence.

44 Then He told them, "These are My words that I spoke to you while I was still with you-that everything written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms must be fulfilled."

45 Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures.
