Commentary on Luke 9:56

Theological / Devotional

Another village. Probably another Samaritan village, one that was more friendly. Christ here provided an example of the admonition He had formerly given the disciples (see Matt. 10:22-24). Some have suggested that this may have been either the village of Sychar, or another in its near vicinity whose inhabitants had heard Christ upon a former occasion and were friendly toward Him (see John 4:39-42).
