Luke 24:8 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 24:8

And they remembered his words.
] That is, the words of Christ, as the Persic version expresses it; which they had forgot, and it may be had never truly understood until now; and had now their memories refreshed with them by the angels, and their understandings opened by the Spirit of God. Saints are sometimes apt to forget even the gracious promises of God, they have understood and received comfort from; the word, or words, on which they have been caused to hope, until the Spirit of God, who is their best remembrancer, puts them in mind of them.

Luke 24:8 In-Context

6 He is not here. He has come back to life. Remember how He spoke to you while He was still in Galilee,

7 when He told you that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again."

8 Then they remembered His words,

9 and returning from the tomb they reported all this to the Eleven and to all the rest.

10 The women were Mary of Magdala, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James; and they and the rest of the women related all this to the Apostles.
