Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882] |
So then after the Lord--an epithet applied to Jesus by this Evangelist only in Mar 16:19-20, when He comes to His glorious Ascension and its subsequent fruits. It is most frequent in Luke.
had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven--See on Luk 24:50-51.
and sat on the right hand of God--This great truth is here only related as a fact in the Gospel history. In that exalted attitude He appeared to Stephen (Act 7:55-56); and it is thereafter perpetually referred to as His proper condition in glory. |
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
He was received up into heaven - In a cloud from the Mount of Olives. See Act 1:9.
The right hand of God - We are not to suppose that God has hands, or that Jesus sits in any particular direction from God. This phrase is taken from the manner of speaking among men, and means that he was exalted to honor and power in the heavens. It was esteemed the place of the highest honor to be seated at the right hand of a prince. So, to be seated at the right hand of God, means that Jesus is exalted to the highest honor of the universe. Compare Eph 1:20-22. |
Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
The Lord - How seasonable is he called by this title! After he had spoken to them - For forty days. Luk 24:50. |
Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
After the Lord had spoken - These things, and conversed with them for forty days, he was taken up into heaven, there to appear in the presence of God for us. |
