But Jesus turned and rebuked them
But Jesus
The phrase "But Jesus" introduces a pivotal moment in the narrative, highlighting the contrast between human inclination and divine wisdom. The Greek name "Iēsous" is derived from the Hebrew "Yeshua," meaning "Yahweh is salvation." This emphasizes Jesus' role as the Savior, who consistently redirects His followers from worldly reactions to spiritual truths. In the context of Luke 9, Jesus is on His way to Jerusalem, fully aware of His impending crucifixion, yet His focus remains on teaching His disciples the principles of His kingdom.

turned
The word "turned" is translated from the Greek "strepho," which means to turn around or to change direction. This physical act of turning signifies Jesus' intentional engagement with His disciples. It is a moment of direct confrontation, where Jesus shifts the focus from the disciples' misguided zeal to His corrective teaching. This turning is not just physical but also metaphorical, as Jesus seeks to turn their hearts and minds towards a deeper understanding of His mission.

and rebuked them
The phrase "and rebuked them" comes from the Greek "epitimao," which means to censure or admonish. This rebuke is not out of anger but out of love and correction. Jesus' rebuke is a teaching moment, emphasizing the importance of mercy over judgment. In the historical context, the disciples had just witnessed the rejection of Jesus by a Samaritan village and, in their zeal, suggested calling down fire from heaven. Jesus' rebuke serves to remind them that His mission is not one of destruction but of salvation and grace. This aligns with the broader scriptural narrative that God desires mercy and not sacrifice, as seen throughout the Old and New Testaments.

(55) Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.--The words admit of two constructions: (1) that the disciples did not know that the Spirit that had been given "not by measure" to their Master, and promised by Him to them (Matthew 10:20; John 3:34), was one of gentleness and love; (2) that they did not know that in yielding to what they thought a righteous anger, they were really yielding themselves to the evil mind, or the personal Evil Spirit which was at enmity with God. Looking to the general use of the word "spirit" in our Lord's teaching, the former way of taking the words seems, on the whole, preferable, and agrees better with what follows. The Spirit which had claimed them for its own was one that led Him to save and not to destroy. The whole clause, however, is wanting in the best MSS.

Verse 55. - But he turned, and rebuked them. "Christ wrought miracles in every element except fire. Fire is reserved for the consummation of the age" (Bengel). And said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of.
