Gill's Notes on the Bible
And sent messengers before his face,.... Who very likely were his two disciples, James and John, since they so highly resented the ill treatment their master met with from the Samaritans:
and they went; before him:
and entered into a village of the Samaritans; or "city", as the Vulgate Latin, Persic, and Ethiopic versions read, and so one of Stephens's copies; which lay in the way from Galilee to Judea, where the disciples had been forbid to enter, that is, in order to preach,
Matthew 10:5
To make ready for him; to prepare a lodging, and proper food for him and his disciples, as they passed on in their journey, for his intention was not to make any stay there.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Sent messengers - In the original the word is âangels;â and the use of that word here shows that the word âangelâ in the Bible does not always mean heavenly beings.
To make ready - To prepare a place, lodgings, refreshments. He had no reason to expect that he would experience any kind treatment from the Samaritans if he came suddenly among them, and if they saw that he was going to Jerusalem. He therefore made provision beforehand, and thus has shown us that it is not âimproperâ to look out beforehand for the supply of our wants, and to guard against want and poverty.
Samaritans - See the notes at Matthew 10:5. They had no dealings with the Jews, John 4:9.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 52. Sent messengers — Î±Î³Î³ÎµÎ»Î¿Ï Ï, angels, literally; but this proves that the word angel signifies a messenger of any kind, whether Divine or human. The messengers in this case were probably James and John.
