And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow you wherever you go.
All Commentaries on Luke 9:57 Go To Luke 9
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
Our Lord spoke this to the man to whom He had said, Follow me. But another disciple put himself forward, to whom no one had spoken any thing, saying, I will follow you, O Lord; but let me first go and bid them farewell who are at home, lest perchance they look for me as they are wont.
As if he said to him, The East calls you, and you turn to the West.
