Lucas 9:3

3 «No lleven nada para el camino: ni bastón, ni bolsa, ni pan, ni dinero, ni dos mudas de ropa —les dijo—.

Lucas 9:3 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 9:3

And he said unto them, take nothing for your journey
Throughout the towns and cities of Judea, where they were sent to preach the Gospel:

neither staves,
The Vulgate Latin, and all the Oriental versions, read in the singular number, "neither staff, rod, or club"; and so it was in one of Beza's ancient copies, but in all the rest in the plural, as in Matthew; which last must be the true reading, since one staff was allowed, according as in ( Mark 6:8 ) though more than one were forbidden:

nor scrip;
or bag to put provision in; (See Gill on Matthew 10:10)

Neither bread, neither money;
gold, silver, or brass, to buy bread with; because they were to have it, wherever they came, given them, as their due, and the reward of their labour;

neither have two coats apiece;
the word "apiece" is left out in one copy, nor is it expressed in the Vulgate Latin and the eastern versions, which read as in ( Matthew 10:10 ) though the word does aptly and clearly express the sense of the prohibition, which was not that they should not have two coats among them, but not two apiece; or each man should not have two, or have change of raiment; (See Gill on Matthew 10:10)

Lucas 9:3 In-Context

1 Habiendo reunido a los doce, Jesús les dio poder y autoridad para expulsar a todos los demonios y para sanar enfermedades.

2 Entonces los envió a predicar el reino de Dios y a sanar a los enfermos.

3 «No lleven nada para el camino: ni bastón, ni bolsa, ni pan, ni dinero, ni dos mudas de ropa —les dijo—.

4 En cualquier casa que entren, quédense allí hasta que salgan del pueblo.

5 Si no los reciben bien, al salir de ese pueblo, sacúdanse el polvo de los pies como un testimonio contra sus habitantes».
