Luke24:27

27 And beginning at and all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures, the things concerning himself.

By our Saviour's form of reprehending his Disciples, We may both learn. 1. That it is not every saying, Thou Fool, but a saying of it from a Root of hatred, Malice and Anger, which our Saviour makes to be a Breach of the sixth Commandment, Matth. 5. Our Saviour's Reprehension of them was out of a Principle of Love, and a Root of good Will to them. 2. That the best of us are very slow of Heart to believe what cometh to us upon the meer credit of a Divine Revelation. It is also observable from what we have, v. 27. That Moses and the Prophets are not to be rejected by Christians, they also have much concerning Christ; out of them Christ instructeth these two Disciples in the things concerning himself.
