SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:2

Y he aquí un hombre hidrpico estaba delante de l.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 14:2

Verse 2. The
dropsy.] udrwpikov, dropsical; from udwp, water, and wy, the countenance, because in this disorder the face of the patient is often very much bloated. Probably the insidious Pharisee had brought this dropsical man to the place, not doubting that our Lord's eye would affect his heart, and that he would instantly cure him; and then he could most plausibly accuse him for a breach of the Sabbath. If this were the case, and it is likely, how deep must have been the perfidy and malice of the Pharisee!

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 2. And behold, there was a certain man before him , etc.] Who sat just before him, as he was at table; who either came there of himself, in order to receive a
cure; or rather, since it was in a private house, and he at table too, was brought and set there on purpose by the Pharisees, to try whether Christ would heal him on the sabbath day, that they might have somewhat against him; which they doubted not but he would do, knowing his compassionate and beneficent disposition to do good to creatures in distress, whenever he had an opportunity: which had the dropsy : or gathered waters, as the Syriac version renders it; was filled with water, which is the nature of that disease, and distinguishes it from what is called the dry dropsy: this disease is a preternatural collection of serum, or water in some part of the body; or a too great proportion thereof in the blood. The dropsy acquires different names, from the different parts it afflicts, or the different parts the waters are collected in; that of the abdomen, or lower belly, called simply and absolutely dropsy, is particularly denominated ascites; that of the whole habit of the body, anasarca, or leucophlegmatia; that of the head, hydrocephalus; that of the scrotum, hydrocele. -There is also a species of this disease, supposed to be caused instead of water, by a collection of wind, called tympanites; and by Hippocrates, the dry dropsy: we also meet with dropsies of the breast, pericardium, uterus, ovaries, etc. The causes of dropsies in general, are whatever may obstruct the serous part of the blood, so as to make it stagnate in the vessels; or burst the vessels themselves, so as to let the blood out among the membranes; or weaken and relax the tone of the vessels; or this the blood, and make it watery; or lessen perspiration. These causes are various, viz. sometimes acute diseases, scirrhous tumours of any of the more noble viscera, excessive evacuations, particularly haemorrhages, hard drinking, etc. The ascites, or water dropsy of the abdomen, is the most usual case, and what we particularly call the dropsy: its symptoms are tumours, first of the feet and legs, and afterwards of the abdomen. which keep continually growing; and if the belly be struck or shook, there is heard a quashing of water: add to this, three other attendants, viz. a dyspnoea, intense thirst, and sparing urine; with which may be numbered heaviness, listlessness, costiveness, a light fever, and an emaciation of the body f441 .

Such we must suppose to be the case of this man, and that he was now in such a condition, as to be thought incurable.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-6 - This Pharisee, as well as others, seems to have had an ill design i entertaining Jesus at his house. But our Lord would not be hindere from healing a man, though he knew a clamour would be raised at his doing it on the sabbath. It requires care to understand the prope connexion between piety and charity in observing the sabbath, and the distinction between works of real necessity and habits of self-indulgence. Wisdom from above, teaches patient perseverance in well-doing.
