SEV Biblia, Chapter 24:48
Y vosotros sois testigos de estas cosas.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 24:48
Verse 48. Ye are witnesses of these things.] He gave them a full commission to proclaim these glad tidings of peace and salvation to a lost world. The disciples were witnesses not only that Christ had suffered and rose again from the dead; but also that he opens the understanding by the inspiration of his Spirit, that he gives repentance, that he pardons sin, and purifies from all unrighteousness, and that he is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come unto the knowledge of the truth and be saved. And these are the things of which their successors in the Gospel ministry must bear witness. As far as a man steadily and affectionately proclaims these doctrines, so far God will bless his labour to the salvation of those who hear him. But no man can with any propriety bear witness of that grace that saves the soul, whose own soul is not saved by that grace.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 48. And ye are witnesses of these things .] As they were witnesses of the truth of his humanity, having seen, and heard, and handled him, both before, and after his resurrection from the dead, and of all that he did, of all the miracles that he wrought in Jerusalem, Judea, and Galilee, and of his transfiguration on the mount; so likewise of his sorrows in the garden, and of his sufferings in the palace of the high priest, and in Pilate's hall, and on the cross; and of his death, which was the death of the cross; and also of his resurrection from the dead, in the same body, to whom he showed himself alive by many infallible proofs; by showing them the print of the nails in his hands and feet; by being handled by them; by eating and drinking in their presence; and by conversing with them for the space of forty days: and their business was also to testify the doctrine of repentance, and remission of sins, in Jerusalem, in all Judea, and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth, which they accordingly did; (see Acts 1:8 2:32,30-32, 10:39,41 20:21).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 36-49 - Jesus appeared in a miraculous manner, assuring the disciples of his peace, though they had so lately forsaken him, and promising spiritual peace with every blessing. Many troublesome thoughts which disquiet ou minds, rise from mistakes concerning Christ. All the troublesom thoughts which rise in our hearts at any time, are known to the Lor Jesus, and are displeasing to him. He spake with them on their unreasonable unbelief. Nothing had passed but what was foretold by the prophets, and necessary for the salvation of sinners. And now all me should be taught the nature and necessity of repentance, in order to the forgiveness of their sins. And these blessings were to be sough for, by faith in the name of Jesus. Christ by his Spirit works on the minds of men. Even good men need to have their understandings opened But that we may have right thoughts of Christ, there needs no more tha to be made to understand the Scriptures.
