Gill's Notes on the Bible
And they were all amazed, and they glorified God,.... Not the Pharisees, and doctors of the law, but the common people:
and were filled with fear; of the Divine Being, whose presence and power they were sensible must be in this case:
saying, we have seen strange things today; paradoxes, things wonderful, unthought of, unexpected, and incredible by carnal reason, and what were never seen, nor known before; as that a man, who was so enfeebled by the palsy, that he was obliged to be carried on a bed by four men, yet, on a sudden, by a word speaking, rose up, and carried his bed, on his back, home.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 9:1-7.
Luke 5:17
On a certain day - The time and place are not particularly mentioned here, but from Matthew 9:1 it seems it was at Capernaum.
Luke 5:19
The tiling - See the notes at Matthew 9:1-7.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 26. Strange things — παραδοξα, paradoxes. A paradox is something that appears false and absurd, but is not really so: or, something contrary to the commonly received opinion. We have seen wonders wrought which seem impossible; and we should conclude them to be tricks and illusions, were it not for the indisputable evidence we have of their reality.
