Lucas 7:48

48 Entonces le dijo Jesús a ella:—Tus pecados quedan perdonados.

Lucas 7:48 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 7:48

And he saith unto her
Directing his discourse to the woman that now stood before him:

thy sins are forgiven;
which was said, partly on account of the Pharisee, to let him see, that he knew this woman, what she was, and had been; that she had been a sinner, a great sinner, one that owed five hundred pence, but was now forgiven, washed, cleansed, sanctified, and justified, and therefore not to be shunned and avoided; and partly on the woman's account, that she might have a fresh discovery of the forgiveness of her sins, for her comfort under the severe censure of the Pharisee, and that her faith in it might be strengthened; as also on his own account, to show that he was not only a prophet that had extraordinary knowledge of persons, and their characters, but that he was the most high God, to whom belonged the prerogative of pardoning sin.

Lucas 7:48 In-Context

46 Tú no me ungiste la cabeza con aceite, pero ella me ungió los pies con perfume.

47 Por esto te digo: si ella ha amado mucho, es que sus muchos pecados le han sido perdonados. Pero a quien poco se le perdona, poco ama.

48 Entonces le dijo Jesús a ella:—Tus pecados quedan perdonados.

49 Los otros invitados comenzaron a decir entre sí: «¿Quién es este, que hasta perdona pecados?»

50 —Tu fe te ha salvado —le dijo Jesús a la mujer—; vete en paz.
