Luke Chapter 6 verse 45 Holy Bible

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(45) A good man out of the good treasure.--See Note on Matthew 12:35. There the words are spoken in immediate connection with the judgment which the Pharisees had passed on our Lord as casting out devils by Beelzebub, and follow on a reproduction of the similitude of the tree and its fruit. The sequence of thought in that passage helps us to trace a like sequence here. Out of the "good treasure of his heart" the good man would bring forth, not harsh or hasty judgment, but kindness, gentleness, compassion; out of the "evil treasure" the man who was evil, the hypocrite who judged others by himself, would bring forth bitterness, and harsh surmises, and uncharitable condemnation.Parallel Commentaries ...GreekTheὁ (ho)Article - Nominative Masculine SingularStrong's 3588: The, the definite article.
