Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 6. - Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof. Augustine's comment on these remarkable words is good: "By saying that he was unworthy, he showed himself worthy of Christ's entering, not within his walls, but within his heart."

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(6) Then Jesus went with them.--Literally, And Jesus was going with them.The centurion sent friends to him.--The precision of St. Luke's account leads us to receive it as a more accurate record of what St. Matthew reports in outline. It is, we may add, more true to nature. The centurion was not likely to leave the slave who was so precious to him when he seemed as in the very agonies of death.Trouble not thyself.--The word is the same as in Mark 5:35, where see Note.
