Luke 5:28 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 5:28

And he left all
His company, his business, and all the profits of it:

rose up;
directly; such power went along with the words of Christ, that he could not withstand it:

and followed him;
not only in a literal, but in a spiritual sense, and became a disciple of his.
