Luke 24:24

24 Some of our men ran out to see, and sure enough, his body was gone, just as the women had said.”

Luke 24:24 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 24:24

And certain of them which were with us
The apostles and brethren, who were together when the women came, and made the above report; particularly Peter, who is named, ( Luke 24:12 ) and John, who also was with him, as appears from ( John 20:2 ) these went to the sepulchre;
of Jesus, to satisfy themselves and their companions, as much as they could, about these things: and found it even so as the women had said;
that is, that the body of Jesus was not there, and that the linen clothes were laid by themselves: but him they saw not;
the Ethiopic version reads, "and him they found not": the women, as before observed, might report, that though they found not the body in the grave, yet they saw him alive by the way, but so did not the disciples; which made it look very strange, doubtful, and suspicious, that the women should see him, and not his apostles; they could not tell how to account for this, and this made them to be in suspense about the fact.

Luke 24:24 In-Context

22 “Then some women from our group of his followers were at his tomb early this morning, and they came back with an amazing report.

23 They said his body was missing, and they had seen angels who told them Jesus is alive!

24 Some of our men ran out to see, and sure enough, his body was gone, just as the women had said.”

25 Then Jesus said to them, “You foolish people! You find it so hard to believe all that the prophets wrote in the Scriptures.

26 Wasn’t it clearly predicted that the Messiah would have to suffer all these things before entering his glory?”
