People's Commentary (NT)
Luke 12:19
Thou hast much goods laid up for many years. He had the goods, but
the years he could not claim. It was a second element of his folly to
forget that life is uncertain, and to make no provision for its close.
Take thine ease. Here is the third element of his folly; to attempt
to satisfy his soul with food, drink and merriment: to feed that which
demands heavenly food on husks.
Luke 12:16-19
He spake a parable. To show that riches do not secure one from
evil.
A certain rich man. There is no intimation that his wealth was
unjustly secured.
