Lucas 8:53 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 8:53

And they laughed him to scorn
The servants, neighbours, and relations, the pipers, and mourning women: these, from weeping for the dead, fell to laughing at Christ, having him and his words in the utmost derision:

knowing that she was dead:
some of them having been employed in laying her out, and all of them having seen her, and were satisfied, and thoroughly assured, that she was actually dead, as ever any person was, as she doubtless was; but they were ignorant in what sense Christ meant she was not dead, but asleep; (See Gill on Matthew 9:24). (See Gill on Mark 5:39).

Lucas 8:53 In-Context

51 Y cuando El llegó a la casa, no permitió que nadie entrara con El sino sólo Pedro, Juan y Jacobo , y el padre y la madre de la muchacha.

52 Todos la lloraban y se lamentaban; pero El dijo: No lloréis, porque no ha muerto, sino que duerme.

53 Y se burlaban de El, sabiendo que ella había muerto.

54 Pero El, tomándola de la mano, clamó, diciendo: ¡Niña, levántate!

55 Entonces le volvió su espíritu, y se levantó al instante, y El mandó que le dieran de comer.
