SEV Biblia, Chapter 9:44

Poned vosotros en vuestros oídos estas palabras; porque ha de acontecer que el Hijo del hombre ser� entregado en manos de hombres.

---

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 9:44

Verse 44. Let these sayings sink down into your ears] Or, put these words into your ears. To other words, you may lend occasional attention-but to what concerns my sufferings and death you must ever listen. Let them constantly occupy a place in your most serious meditations and reflections.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 44. Let these sayings sink down into your ears , etc.] The Vulgate Latin, Arabic, and Ethiopic versions read, �in your hearts�: Christ's sense is, that they would, diligently attend to them, seriously consider them, and carefully lay them up in their memories; and what he refers to are not the words he had spoken, but what he was about to say; namely, as follow: for the son of man shall be delivered into the hands of men ; by whom he should be killed, though he should rise again the third day; (See Gill on � Matthew 17:22-23�) Ver. 45. But they understood not this saying , etc.] What was meant by being betrayed into the hands of men, and by his being put to death; they knew not, how these things could possibly be, for they could not by any means reconcile them with the notions they had of a temporal Redeemer, and victorious Messiah: and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not ; the true meaning of this saying was hid from their understanding, which was veiled with the above notion of the worldly grandeur of the Messiah, that they did not take it in; and they feared to ask him of that saying , of the meaning of it; imagining that he had a secret mystical meaning in it, which they could not reach; lest he should reproach them with their dulness and stupidity; or should rebuke them with the like sharpness and severity he had reproved Peter not long ago, upon the same head.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 43-50 - This prediction of Christ's sufferings was plain enough, but the disciples would not understand it, because it agreed not with their notions. A little child is the emblem by which Christ teaches u simplicity and humility. What greater honour can any man attain to in this world, than to be received by men as a messenger of God an Christ; and to have God and Christ own themselves received and welcome in him! If ever any society of Christians in this world, had reason to silence those not of their own communion, the twelve disciples at thi time had; yet Christ warned them not to do the like again. Those may be found faithful followers of Christ, and may be accepted of him, who d not follow with us.

Vincent's NT Word Studies

44. Let these sayings sink down into your ears. Lit., put these sayings into your ears.

Shall be delivered (mellei paredidosqai). Rather, is about to be delivered.

46-50. Compare Matt. xviii. 1-35; Mark ix. 33-50.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

9:44 {Sink into your ears} (qesqe humeis eis ta wta humwn). Second aorist imperative middle of tiqemi, common verb. "Do you (note emphatic position) yourselves (whatever others do) put into your ears." No word like "sink" here. The same prediction here as in #Mr 9:31; Mt 17:22 about the Son of man only without mention of death and resurrection as there, which see for discussion.
