Lucas 17:1 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 17:1

Then said he unto his disciples
In the Alexandrian copy, and in "three" of Beza's exemplars it is read, "his disciples"; and so read the Vulgate Latin, and all the Oriental versions; that is, Jesus said to his disciples what follows, as the Syriac and Persic versions express, and the latter reads, he said "again". About the time that he delivered the above parable concerning the rich man and Lazarus, he repeated to his disciples what he had before said to them on another occasion, ( Matthew 18:7 )

it is impossible but that offences will come;
considering the decree of God, the malice of Satan, the wickedness of men, the corruption both of their principles and practices. The Ethiopic version renders it, "temptation will come"; that which will be trying to the faith of the saints, and a stumblingblock to weak minds, as reproach and persecution, errors, and heresies, and the evil lives of professors:

but woe [unto him] through whom they come;
(See Gill on Matthew 18:7)

Lucas 17:1 In-Context

1 Jesus disse aos seus discípulos: “É inevitável que aconteçam coisas que levem o povo a tropeçar, mas ai da pessoa por meio de quem elas acontecem.
2 Seria melhor que ela fosse lançada no mar com uma pedra de moinho amarrada no pescoço, do que levar um desses pequeninos a pecar.
3 Tomem cuidado.“Se o seu irmão pecar, repreenda-o e, se ele se arrepender, perdoe-lhe.
4 Se pecar contra você sete vezes no dia, e sete vezes voltar a você e disser: ‘Estou arrependido’, perdoe-lhe”.
5 Os apóstolos disseram ao Senhor: “Aumenta a nossa fé!”
