Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerses 12, 13. - Parallel passage: Luke 10:5, 6 (the seventy). Your very entrance is to be an occasion of imparting spiritual blessing if the house be receptive of it. Verse 12. - And when ye come; and as ye enter (Revised Version), synchronous with the moment of your entrance (cf. Luke 17:12). Into an house; the house (Revised Version); i.e. of him who is worthy. Salute it. With the usual greeting of "Peace" (Judges 18:15; 1 Samuel 25:5, 6). Observe that Christ practised what he preached (John 20:19 [Luke 24:3]).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(12) When ye come into an house.--The English indefinite article is misleading. We must read "into the house," i.e., the dwelling of the man who had been reported as worthy. The salutation, as the words that follow imply, was the familiar, "Peace be with thee--Peace be to this house" (Luke 10:5).
