Luke 24:24

24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had described. But Him they did not see.”

Luke 24:24 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 24:24

And certain of them which were with us
The apostles and brethren, who were together when the women came, and made the above report; particularly Peter, who is named, ( Luke 24:12 ) and John, who also was with him, as appears from ( John 20:2 ) these went to the sepulchre;
of Jesus, to satisfy themselves and their companions, as much as they could, about these things: and found it even so as the women had said;
that is, that the body of Jesus was not there, and that the linen clothes were laid by themselves: but him they saw not;
the Ethiopic version reads, "and him they found not": the women, as before observed, might report, that though they found not the body in the grave, yet they saw him alive by the way, but so did not the disciples; which made it look very strange, doubtful, and suspicious, that the women should see him, and not his apostles; they could not tell how to account for this, and this made them to be in suspense about the fact.

Luke 24:24 In-Context

22 Furthermore, some of our women astounded us. They were at the tomb early this morning,

23 but they did not find His body. They came and told us they had seen a vision of angels, who said that Jesus was alive.

24 Then some of our companions went to the tomb and found it just as the women had described. But Him they did not see.”

25 Then Jesus said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

26 Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and then to enter His glory?”
