Wesley's Notes for Luke 16:27

16:25 But Abraham said, Son - According to the flesh. Is it not worthy of observation, that Abraham will not revile even a damned soul? and shall living men revile one another? Thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things - Thou didst choose and accept of worldly things as thy good, thy happiness. And can any be at a loss to know why he was in torments? This damnable idolatry, had there been nothing more, was enough to sink him to the nethermost hell.

16:26 Beside this there is a great gulf fixed - Reader, to which side of it wilt thou go?

16:28 Lest they also come into this place - He might justly fear lest their reproaches should add to his own torment.
