Lucas 24:45

45 Entonces les abrió el entendimiento para que comprendieran las Escrituras.

Lucas 24:45 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 24:45

Then opened he their understanding
He not only opened their hearts, to attend to what he said, and the proofs he gave of his resurrection from the dead in a true body; but he removed the veil from the eyes of their minds, and gave them an understanding of the sacred writings, respecting this matter:

that they might understand the Scriptures;
concerning his sufferings, death, and resurrection, which they were very ignorant of before, and which were as a sealed book unto them, ( John 20:9 ) though they had been from their infancy brought up to the reading of the Scriptures, and had had the advantage of Christ's ministry for some years; which shows the necessity of the special illumination of the Spirit, and the influence of his grace to remove the darkness of the mind, and give the true sense of the sacred writings.

Lucas 24:45 In-Context

43 así que lo tomó y se lo comió delante de ellos. Luego les dijo:

44 —Cuando todavía estaba yo con ustedes, les decía que tenía que cumplirse todo lo que está escrito acerca de mí en la ley de Moisés, en los profetas y en los salmos.

45 Entonces les abrió el entendimiento para que comprendieran las Escrituras.

46 —Esto es lo que está escrito —les explicó—: que el Cristo padecerá y resucitará al tercer día,

47 y en su nombre se predicarán el arrepentimiento y el perdón de pecados a todas las naciones, comenzando por Jerusalén.
