Contextual Overview
1 And going in, He passed through Jericho. 2 And, behold, a man called by name Zaccheus; and he was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. 3 And he was seeking to see Jesus, who He is. And he was not able, because of the crowd, and he was little in stature. 4 And running ahead, he went up onto a sycamore tree, so that he might see Him; for He was going to pass through that way . 5 And as He came to the place, looking up, Jesus saw him, and said to him, Zaccheus, hurry, come down, for today I must stay in your house. 6 And having hastened, he came down and welcomed Him, rejoicing. 7 And having seen, all murmured, saying, He has gone in to stay with a sinful man. 8 But standing, Zaccheus said to the Lord, Behold, Lord, half of my possessions I give to the poor. And if in anything I accused anyone falsely, I restore it fourfold. 9 And Jesus said to him, Today salvation has come to this house, for he also is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the one being lost.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And when they saw it,.... The Vulgate Latin, Syriac, and Arabic versions read, "when they all saw this"; that is, as the Persic version, rather paraphrasing than translating, says, "the men and the multitude that were with him"; the "pharisaical" sort, the priests and Levites, of which there were great numbers in Jericho;
:-.
They all murmured; as the Scribes and Pharisees did, at his eating with publicans and sinners, Luke 15:2.
Saying, that he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner; a notorious one, an abandoned profligate creature; one of the worst of sinners, as being a publican, and the chief of them; who had amassed vast riches to himself, by extortion and oppression; and they thought it was not agreeable to the character of an holy man, and a venerable prophet, which Christ bore, to go into such a man's house, eat at his table; and have familiar conversation with him; see Matthew 9:10.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Murmured - Found fault, complained.
To be a guest - To remain with, or to be entertained by.
A man that is a sinner - All publicans they regarded as great sinners, and the “chief” of the publicans, therefore, they regarded as especially wicked. It would appear also from Zacchaeus’ confession that his character “had been” that of an oppressive man. But the people seemed to forget that he might be a penitent, and that the Messiah came to save that which was lost.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Luke 19:7. To be guest with a man that is a sinner. — Meaning either that he was a heathen, or, though by birth a Jew, yet as bad as a heathen, because of his unholy and oppressive office. Luke 7:37; Luke 7:37.
