What does Luke 9:41-42 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

Jesus" statement to the father and the crowd ( Luke 9:41) recalls Deuteronomy 32:20 where God rebuked the unbelieving Israelites in the wilderness. Jesus went on to express disappointment with these people"s lack of faith. By omitting the further conversation between Jesus and the father in which Jesus stressed the importance of faith in Him (cf. Mark 9:21-24), Luke focused attention on Jesus" power. Luke also stressed Jesus" compassion by noting that He gave the boy back to his father ( Luke 9:42; cf. Luke 7:15).
