In B and other MSS. the usual order of the three disciples—Peter, James, John—is changed into Peter, John, James. —Ver. εἰδότες ὅτι ἀπέθανεν: Lk. is care- ful to add this remark to exclude the idea that it was not a case of real death; his aim here, as always, to magnify the power as well as the benevolence of Jesus.—Ver. 55. τὸ πνεῦμα, her spirit returned = Wuxi in Acts xx. 1ο.--φαγεῖν: the order to give the resuscitated child food is not peculiar to Lk., but he places it in a more prominent position than Mk. to show that as she had been really dead she was now really alive and well; needing food and able to take it. Godet remarks on the calmness with which Jesus gave the order after such a stupendous event. “As simply as & physician feels the pulse of a patient He regulates her diet for the day.” CHAPTER IX. THE CLOSE OF THE GaLILEAN Ministry. SETTING THE Facr TowarDs JERUSALEM.—VV. 1-50
contain sundry particulars which together form the closing scenes of the Galilean ministry: the mission of the Twelve, the feeding of the thousands, the con- versation on the Christ and the cross, the transfiguration, the epileptic boy, the conversation on ‘“ who is the greatest ”. At ver. 51 begins the long division of the Gospel, extending to xviii. 14, which forms the chief peculiarity of Lk., some- times called the Great Interpolation or Insertion, purporting to be the narrative of a journey southwards towards Jeru- salem through Samaria, therefore some- times designated the Samaritan ministry (Baur and the Tibingen school), but in reality consisting for the most part of a miscellaneous collection of didactic pieces. At xviii. 15 Lk. rejoins the company of his brother evangelists, not to leave them again till the tragic end. Vv. 1-6.
