Lucas 15:10

10 De la misma manera, os digo, hay gozo en la presencia de los ángeles de Dios por un pecador que se arrepiente.

Lucas 15:10 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 15:10

Likewise I say unto you
As before, in ( Luke 15:7 )

there is joy in the presence of the angels of God;
who are the friends and neighbours of Christ: (See Gill on Luke 15:6),

over one sinner that repenteth;
which they have knowledge of, either by immediate revelation from God, or by observation in the church where they attend: the reason of this joy is, because there is one rescued out of the hands of Satan and his angels, between whom and them, there is an implacable enmity; and because another subject is added to Christ's kingdom, and by which it is enlarged, the prosperity of which they greatly desire; and because another heir is born in that family, to which they belong, and they have another social worshipper with them: and this joy is said to be "in the presence of" them; and so may design the joy of others, as of Father, Son, and Spirit, which is in their sight and knowledge; and also the joy there is among themselves.

Lucas 15:10 In-Context

8 ¿O qué mujer, si tiene diez monedas de plata y pierde una moneda, no enciende una lámpara y barre la casa y busca con cuidado hasta hallarla?

9 Cuando la encuentra, reúne a las amigas y vecinas, diciendo: "Alegraos conmigo porque he hallado la moneda que había perdido."

10 De la misma manera, os digo, hay gozo en la presencia de los ángeles de Dios por un pecador que se arrepiente.

11 Y Jesús dijo: Cierto hombre tenía dos hijos;

12 y el menor de ellos le dijo al padre: "Padre, dame la parte de la hacienda que me corresponde." Y él les repartió sus bienes.
