And he called one of the servants<\/strong>,…. One of the ministers of the word, one of the disciples of Christ, as the Scribes and Pharisees sometimes did: choosing rather to speak to one of the disciples, than to Christ himself, when they were offended; see Mr 2:16<\/span><\/p>\n And asked what these things meant<\/strong>: for self-righteous persons, as these Scribes and Pharisees were, are ignorant of the truths of the Gospel; they do not understand them, nor conceive what is meant by them they cannot take in the doctrine of God’s everlasting love, that it should be so early; be towards some, and not others; that it should be independent of men’s works, both in the rise and continuance of it; that it should be exercised towards sinners, and yet be no licentious doctrine: and as much at a loss are they about the doctrine of election: as that it should be eternal, personal, discriminating, irrespective of works, and yet give no liberty to sin: they know nothing of the covenant of grace, nor have any other notion but of a covenant of works; and if of any other, yet a conditional one, made with them upon their conversion; or rather, one of their own making, and which depends on their good behaviour: they are ignorant of salvation by Christ; of justification by his righteousness; of peace and pardon by his blood; of the doctrine of regeneration, and of living by faith on Christ; and of eternal life as God’s free gift; and so likewise of spiritual joy, and mirth: they are strangers to themselves, their lost state and condition, and a deliverance out of it; to the kingdom of God, or an internal work of grace, the fruits of which are peace and joy in the Holy Ghost; and to the person, offices, and grace of Christ; to justification and atonement by him; to the promises of the Gospel, and to that itself which is the joyful sound; all which produce spiritual joy, delight, and pleasure in sensible souls: the rejoicing of such persons is only in themselves, and in their own works and duties; but as for true solid spiritual joy, they intermeddle not with it, nor know they what it means.<\/p>\n Servants <\/B> (<\/SPAN><\/span>). Not <\/SPAN><\/span> (bondslaves) as in verse 22<\/span>. The Greeks often used <\/SPAN><\/span> for servant like the Latin puer<\/I>. It could be either a hired servant (<\/SPAN><\/span>, verse 17<\/span>) or slave (<\/SPAN><\/span>).<\/P> He inquired <\/B> (<\/SPAN><\/span>). Imperfect middle, inquired repeatedly and eagerly.<\/P> What these things might be <\/B> ( <\/SPAN><\/span>). Not “poor” Greek as Easton holds, but simply the form of the direct question retained in the indirect. See the direct form as the apodosis of a condition of the fourth class in Ac 17:18<\/span>. In Ac 10:17<\/span> we have the construction with <\/SPAN><\/span> of the direct retained in the indirect question. So also in Lu 1:62<\/span>: See Robertson, Grammar<\/I>, p. 1044. <\/P> <\/p>\n Inquired [] <\/SPAN><\/span>. Imperfect. Began to inquire.<\/P> <\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n 1) “And he called one of the servants,” <\/strong>(kai proskalesamenos hena ton paidon) “And he called directly to him one of the [ads,” young men, perhaps a young servant about the house, one who hurried about to help prepare the Thanksgiving feast with musical festivities, Psa 107:2<\/span>; Luk 10:20<\/span>; Php_4:4; 1Th 5:16<\/span>.<\/p>\n 2) “And asked what these things meant.” <\/strong>(epunthaneto ti an eie tauta) “And he inquired just what these things might mean,” might be, what the significance of all the festivities were all about, a thing the “natural man” seems not to be able to comprehend, except to be convicted by it, 1Co 2:9<\/span>; Joh 13:35<\/span>. These festive sounds and music were not common in his father’s sad house, from which his prodigal brother had gone away.<\/p>\n “And he called to him one of the servants, and enquired what these things might be.”<\/p>\n So he called to him one of the servants and asked what the reason was for all this music and dancing. It was a complete enigma.<\/p>\n 26 And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Ver. 26. What these things meant<\/strong> ] Hypocrites understand not the just man’s joys, nor the sweet intercourse that is between God and his people. <\/p>\n Luk 15:26<\/span> . , not contemptuous, “what all this was about” (Farrar, C. G. T.), but with the puzzled air of a man in the dark and surprised = what does this mean?<\/p>\n called = called to him., <\/p>\n servants = young men. Greek. pais. See App-108. Not the same word as in verses: Luk 15:17, Luk 15:19, Luk 15:22. <\/p>\n asked = began to inquire. Imperf. tense. <\/p>\n meant = might be. <\/p>\n Reciprocal: Mar 14:22 – this Luk 18:36 – he Act 2:12 – What<\/p>\n 6<\/p>\n When the elder son went to work, the return of the “prodigal” had not occurred, hence he did not understand the cause of the merriment.<\/p>\n Luk 15:26. One of the servants. Not the same word as in Luk 15:22; probably an inferior domestic in the permanent employ of the householder, but now standing without.<\/p>\n What these things might be. Offended that this should take place without his knowledge; jealous of the joy in which he would not share.<\/p>\n And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.
