Commentary

Commentary on Luke 15:9

Theological / Devotional

Her friends and her neighbours. According to the Greek, her women friends and neighbors.

Rejoice with me. Joy that is shared with others is intensified in the heart of the person who shares it. Whoever has had the experience of finding again some article of value he feared irretrievably lost can understand the joy of this woman (cf. Rom. 12:15). But of all the joys earth has to offer, there is no joy like that of finding a lost sinner and bringing him to Jesus.
