Lukas 9:1 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 9:1

Then he called his twelve disciples together
The Persic version reads, "all his twelve disciples", the other nine, besides the three that were with him, when he raised Jairus's daughter, recorded in the foregoing chapter; the Vulgate Latin, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions read, "the twelve apostles", for so Christ had named his disciples; (See Gill on Matthew 6:13). The Syriac version only reads, "his own twelve"; and this is agreeably to Luke's way of speaking; see ( Luke 8:1 ) ( 9:12 ) .

And gave them power and authority over all devils;
that is, all kinds of devils, particularly to cast them out of the bodies of men, possessed by them:

and to cure diseases;
of all sorts.

Lukas 9:1 In-Context

1 And having called together the Shneym Asar, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach gave to them koach (power) and samchut (authority) over all the shedim and to give refuah (healing) to their illnesses.
2 Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach sent them out as his Shlichim to preach the Malchut Hashem and to give refuah to the cholim,
3 And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Take nothing for the journey, neither walking stick nor a schnorrer’s (beggar’s) sack nor lechem nor kesef, nor an extra kaftan.
4 And into whatever bais you may enter, remain there, and from there go out.
5 And as many as do not receive you, going out from that shtetl, shake off the dust from your feet for an edut against them.
