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 âchiefâ of the publicans, therefore, they regarded as especially wicked. It would appear also from Zacchaeusâ confession that his character âhad beenâ 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.
