Luke 4:29 Summary

[This verse shows how the people in Jesus' hometown became so angry with Him that they wanted to hurt Him, but Jesus was able to escape and continue on His way. This event is a reminder that following Jesus can be difficult and may lead to persecution, as seen in John 15:20. Despite this, Jesus calls us to follow Him and trust in His power and protection, as seen in Psalm 23:4. By studying this verse, we can learn to trust in God's sovereignty and provision, even in the face of opposition and danger.]

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did the people in the town become so angry with Jesus?

The people became angry because Jesus pointed out their lack of faith and the fact that God had worked miracles in the past for outsiders, like Naaman the Syrian, as seen in 2 Kings 5:1-14, rather than for the people of Israel, which made them feel condemned and unworthy.

What does it mean to be 'driven out of the town' in this context?

Being driven out of the town means that the people of the town rejected Jesus and forced Him to leave, which is a fulfillment of the prophecy in Psalm 118:22, where Jesus is the stone that the builders rejected.

Why did the people want to throw Jesus over the cliff?

The people wanted to throw Jesus over the cliff because they were filled with rage and a desire to silence Him, much like the crowd in Acts 7:54-60, who stoned Stephen for preaching the truth about Jesus.

Is this event a fulfillment of any Old Testament prophecies?

This event can be seen as a fulfillment of the prophecy in Isaiah 53:3, which says that Jesus would be despised and rejected by men, and also Psalm 35:11, which says that false witnesses would rise up against Him.

Reflection Questions

  1. What are some ways that I have rejected or pushed away Jesus in my own life, and how can I learn to accept and follow Him more fully?
  2. How does this verse relate to the idea of persecution and suffering for one's faith, as seen in other parts of the Bible, such as Matthew 5:10-12?
  3. What does this event reveal about the nature of humanity and our tendency to reject God's messengers, as seen in other stories like 1 Samuel 8:7 and Matthew 23:37?
  4. How can I learn to respond to rejection and anger, like Jesus did in this situation, by passing through the crowd and continuing on His way, as seen in Luke 4:30?

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Luke 4:29

And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong.

Trapp's Commentary on Luke 4:29

29 And rose up, and thrust him out of the city, and led him unto the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they might cast him down headlong. Ver. 29. Thrust him out of the city] As unworthy to tread on their pavement. And so mad they were, that they could neither stay till the business were brought to a judicial trial, nor forbear execution till the sabbath were over.

Ellicott's Commentary on Luke 4:29

(29) The brow of the hill.—See Notes on Luke 1:26. The hill now shown as the Mount of Precipitation is about two miles from the city, and could hardly have been the place referred to. There is, however, a cliff about forty feet high close to the city. That they might cast him down headlong.—The Greek word implies casting down from a cliff or precipice. It was not a recognised Jewish punishment, as flinging from the Tarpeian rock was at Rome; but we have an instance of it as an improvised method of execution in Amaziah’s treatment of the Edomite prisoners in 2 Chronicles 25:12. A multitude under the influence of fanaticism or anger is always fertile in expedients of this nature.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Luke 4:29

Verse 29. The brow of the hill] Mr. Maundrel tells us that this is still called "the Mountain of the Precipitation, and is half a league southward of Nazareth. In going to it, you cross first over the vale in which Nazareth stands; and then going down two or three furlongs, in a narrow cleft between the rocks, you there clamber up a short but difficult way on the right hand; at the top of which you find a great stone standing on the brink of a precipice, which is said to be the very place where our Lord was destined to be thrown down by his enraged neighbours." Maundrel's Journey, p. 116. Edit. 5th. 1732.

Cambridge Bible on Luke 4:29

29. the brow of the hill whereon their city was built] The ‘whereon’ refers to the hill not to the brow. Nazareth nestles under the southern slopes of the hill. The cliff down which they wished to hurl Him (because this was regarded as a form of ‘stoning,’ the legal punishment for blasphemy) was certainly not the so-called ‘Mount of Precipitation’ which is two miles distant, and therefore more than a sabbath day’s journey, but one of the rocky escarpments of the hill, and possibly that above the Maronite Church, which is about 40 feet high. This form of punishment is only mentioned in 2 Chronicles 25:12; but in Phocis it was the punishment for sacrilege. (Philo.)

Barnes' Notes on Luke 4:29

The brow of the hill whereon ... - The region in which Nazareth was is hilly, though Nazareth was situated “between” two hills, or in a vale among mountains.

Whedon's Commentary on Luke 4:29

29. Rose up—From their seats in the synagogue. The phrase in the 28th verse, “when they heard these things,” implies that they interrupted him and broke off his discourse.
