Charles Ellicott Commentary Luke 10:8

"And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:" — Luke 10:8 (ASV)

Eat such things as are set before you.—The precise form of the precept is peculiar to St. Luke, but the spirit is the same as that of the words which had been spoken to the Twelve. The Evangelist preachers were to accept whatever was provided for them by a willing host, and to avoid even the appearance of caring for outward comforts.
