Summary Of Commentaries Associated With The Selected Verse
Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
Saying - The eleven said this.
Hath appeared to Simon - To Peter. It is not known precisely when this happened, as the time and place are not mentioned. Paul has referred to it in Co1 15:5, from which it appears that he appeared to "Cephas or Peter" before he did to any other of the apostles. This was a mark of special love and favor, and particularly, after Peter's denial, it showed how ready he was to pardon, and how willing to impart comfort to those who are penitent, though their sins are great. |
Vincent's Word Studies, by Marvin R. Vincent [1886] |
Is risen (ἠγέρθη) - appeared (ὤφθη)
Both aorists. The Lord rose and appeared. So Wyc. See on appeared, Luk 22:43. |
Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
The Lord hath appeared to Simon - Before he was seen of the twelve apostles, Co1 15:5. He had, in his wonderful condescension and grace, taken an opportunity on the former part of that day (though where, or in what manner, is not recorded) to show himself to Peter, that he might early relieve his distresses and fears, on account of having so shamefully denied his Master. |
Adam Clarke Commentary on the Whole Bible - Published 1810-1826 |
Saying, The Lord is risen indeed - The meaning here is, that these two disciples found the apostles, and those who were with them, unanimously testifying that Christ had risen from the dead. It is not the two disciples to whom we are to refer the word λεγοντας, saying; but to the body of the disciples. See the note on Mar 16:12. |
