And Levi made himself a great feast in his own house: and there was a great company of tax collectors and of others that sat down with them.
All Commentaries on Luke 5:29 Go To Luke 5
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
And Levi made him a great feast, to testify his gratitude to Jesus for the favour he had done him. It appears that both St. Mark and St. Luke affect, through consideration for St. Matthew, to designate him here by his less known name of Levi; whereas he designates himself, through humility, in this same circumstance, by his more known appellation of Matthew. (See Matthew ix. 9.) (Bible de Vence)
