Luca 19:1

1 E Gesù, essendo entrato in Gerico, attraversava la città.

Luca 19:1 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 19:1

And [Jesus] entered, and passed through Jericho.
] Though the word "Jesus" is not in the original text it is rightly supplied in our version; as it is also in the Syriac, Persic, Ethiopic versions; for of him the words are manifestly spoken: after he had healed the blind man he met with near to Jericho, he entered into it, but made no stay in it, passed through it at once without stopping, though a very populous city; but here he had no work, either to perform miracles, or to convert sinners; though both, before he entered, and after he passed through it.

Luca 19:1 In-Context

1 E Gesù, essendo entrato in Gerico, attraversava la città.
2 Ed ecco, un uomo, chiamato per nome Zaccheo, il quale era capo dei pubblicani ed era ricco,
3 cercava di veder chi era Gesù, ma non poteva a motivo della folla, perché era piccolo di statura.
4 Allora corse innanzi, e montò sopra un sicomoro, per vederlo, perch’egli avea da passar per quella via.
5 E come Gesù fu giunto in quel luogo, alzati gli occhi, gli disse: Zaccheo, scendi presto, perché oggi debbo albergare in casa tua.
