Lucas 8:40 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 8:40

And it came to pass, that when Jesus was returned
From the country of the Gadarenes, to the other side of the sea of Tiberias, to Galilee; and particularly to his own city, Capernaum; ( Matthew 9:1 ) .

The people gladly received him;
who were of a different cast from those he had just left; being sensible of the benefits they received from him, both by his ministry and miracles; and which was the reason of their receiving him with so much joy and gladness:

for they were all waiting for him;
on the shore, looking out very eagerly for him, being earnestly desirous of his speedy return to them; having many that wanted his assistance, both for their souls and bodies, of which the following are instances.

Lucas 8:40 In-Context

38 O homem de quem haviam saído os demônios suplicava-lhe que o deixasse ir com ele; mas Jesus o mandou embora, dizendo:

39 “Volte para casa e conte o quanto Deus fez a você”. Assim, o homem se foi e anunciou na cidade inteira o quanto Jesus tinha feito por ele.

40 Quando Jesus voltou, uma multidão o recebeu com alegria, pois todos o esperavam.

41 Então um homem chamado Jairo, dirigente da sinagoga, veio e prostrou-se aos pés de Jesus, implorando-lhe que fosse à sua casa

42 porque sua única filha, de cerca de doze anos, estava à morte.Estando Jesus a caminho, a multidão o comprimia.
