Luke 24:40 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 24:40

And when he had thus spoken
And put them into a method of satisfying themselves by their senses: he showed them his hands and his feet;
that is, he held them forth to be seen and handled by them, which no doubt they did; and which were the infallible proofs by which he showed himself alive to them after his passion; and by which they knew the truth of his incarnation, or that he assumed a true and real body, and of the resurrection of the same body; see ( Acts 1:3 ) ( 1 John 1:1 ) .

38 et dixit eis quid turbati estis et cogitationes ascendunt in corda vestra

39 videte manus meas et pedes quia ipse ego sum palpate et videte quia spiritus carnem et ossa non habet sicut me videtis habere

40 et cum hoc dixisset ostendit eis manus et pedes

41 adhuc autem illis non credentibus et mirantibus prae gaudio dixit habetis hic aliquid quod manducetur

42 at illi obtulerunt ei partem piscis assi et favum mellis
