Luca 4:43 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 4:43

And he said unto them
In answer to their importunate requests:

I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also;
as well as to Capernaum; and though they did not express their desire of his continuance with them, in order to preach the Gospel to them; yet Christ signifies, that a principal part of his work lay in preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, the Gospel dispensation on earth, the doctrines and ordinances of it, as well as the things which relate to the kingdom of glory; as what is the saints meetness for it, their regeneration, and their right unto it, which lies in his righteousness: and that as he had preached these things at Capernaum, there was a necessity upon him to preach them in other cities of Galilee and Judea: for therefore am I sent; as he was by his heavenly Father, and had himself also undertook and engaged to do it.

Luca 4:43 In-Context

41 Anche i demoni uscivano da molti gridando, e dicendo: Tu sei il Figliuol di Dio! Ed egli li sgridava e non permetteva loro di parlare, perché sapevano ch’egli era il Cristo.

42 Poi, fattosi giorno, uscì e andò in un luogo deserto; e le turbe lo cercavano e giunsero fino a lui; e lo trattenevano perché non si partisse da loro.

43 Ma egli disse loro: Anche alle altre città bisogna ch’io evangelizzi il regno di Dio; poiché per questo sono stato mandato.

44 E andava predicando per le sinagoghe della Galilea.
