Luke 10:11

11 'We are wiping off [as a witness] against you even the dust of your town that clings to our feet. Know this for certain: the kingdom of God has come near.'

Luke 10:11 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 10:11

Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us
The Syriac version adds, "to our feet"; and so in Beza's most ancient copy, and the Arabic and Persic versions read, "which cleaves to our feet"; which agrees with ( Matthew 10:14 ) ( Mark 6:11 ) .

we do wipe against you:
for a testimony against them, that they had been with them, and were rejected by them; (See Gill on Matthew 10:14) (See Gill on Mark 6:11)

notwithstanding be ye sure of this;
they might assure themselves of this, and which will be an aggravation of their guilt, and increase their punishment another day:

that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you;
was at their very doors, since the ministers of it, of the Gospel dispensation, the harbingers of the Messiah, who were sent to publish his Gospel, to proclaim him as king, and de clare that his kingdom was at hand, had been with them, and they had despised them.

Luke 10:11 In-Context

9 Heal the sick who are there, and tell them, 'The kingdom of God has come near you.'

10 When you enter any town, and they don't welcome you, go out into its streets and say,

11 'We are wiping off [as a witness] against you even the dust of your town that clings to our feet. Know this for certain: the kingdom of God has come near.'

12 I tell you, on that day it will be more tolerable for Sodom than for that town.

13 "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes!
