Luke 7:1 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 7:1

Now when he had ended all his sayings
That is, when Jesus, as the Persic version expresses it, had finished all the above sayings, doctrines, and instructions; not all that he had to say, for he said many things after this:

in the audience of the people;
of the common people, the multitude besides the disciples; and that openly, and publicly, and with a loud and clear voice, that all might hear:

he entered into Capernaum;
Jesus entered, as the Syriac version reads, into his own city, and where he had been before, and wrought miracles.

Luke 7:1 In-Context

1 After He had finished teaching all these things in the hearing of the people, He went into Capernaum.

2 Here the servant of a certain Captain, a man dear to his master, was ill and at the point of death;

3 and the Captain, hearing about Jesus, sent to Him some of the Jewish Elders, begging Him to come and restore his servant to health.

4 And they, when they came to Jesus, earnestly entreated Him, pleading, "He deserves to have this favour granted him,

5 for he loves our nation, and at his own expense he built our synagogue for us."
