Luc 7:23 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 7:23

And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.
] The Arabic version renders it, "blessed is he that doubts not of me". The Persic and Ethiopic versions both add to the text, the former rendering the words thus, "blessed is he that is not brought into offence and doubt concerning me"; and the latter thus, "blessed are they who do not deny me, and are not offended in me": particular regard is had to the disciples of John, who both doubted of Christ as the Messiah, and were offended at his popularity and success; (See Gill on Matthew 11:6).

Luc 7:23 In-Context

21 A l'heure mĂȘme, JĂ©sus guĂ©rit plusieurs personnes de maladies, d'infirmitĂ©s, et d'esprits malins, et il rendit la vue Ă  plusieurs aveugles.
22 Et il leur répondit: Allez rapporter à Jean ce que vous avez vu et entendu: les aveugles voient, les boiteux marchent, les lépreux sont purifiés, les sourds entendent, les morts ressuscitent, la bonne nouvelle est annoncée aux pauvres.
23 Heureux celui pour qui je ne serai pas une occasion de chute!
24 Lorsque les envoyĂ©s de Jean furent partis, JĂ©sus se mit Ă  dire Ă  la foule, au sujet de Jean: Qu'ĂȘtes-vous allĂ©s voir au dĂ©sert? un roseau agitĂ© par le vent?
25 Mais, qu'ĂȘtes-vous allĂ©s voir? un homme vĂȘtu d'habits prĂ©cieux? Voici, ceux qui portent des habits magnifiques, et qui vivent dans les dĂ©lices, sont dans les maisons des rois.
