(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)
This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
closed = rolled up. Compare Luk_4:17. Because it was not yet manifest whether the King and the Kingdom would be received or rejected. See App-72.
the minister = the servant (or "verger "), who put it away. Not the President, who first received it from the servant (Hebrew. chazan) and "delivered "it to the reader.
sat down:i.e. to teach.
were fastened = continued fixed. Almost peculiar to Luke. See Luk_22:56, and ten times in Acts. Elsewhere only in 2Co_3:7, 2Co_3:13.
