Contextual Overview
17 So the seventy whom he had sent returned with great joy, and they said to him, Our Lord, even the demons have submitted to us in your name. 18 He said to them, I saw Satan falling like lightning from heaven. 19 Behold, I give you power, to tread on snakes and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing shall harm you. 20 But do not rejoice in this that the demons submit to you; but rejoice because your names are written in heaven. 21 At that very hour, Jesus rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, I thank you, O my Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you did hide these things from the wise and men of understanding, and did reveal them to children; yes, my Father, for so it was well pleasing in your presence. 22 And he turned to his disciples and said to them, Everything has been entrusted to me by my Father; and no man knows who is the Son, except the Father; and who is the Father except the Son, and to whomever the Son wishes to reveal him. 23 Then he turned to his disciples alone and said, Blessed are the eyes which see what you see. 24 For I say to you, that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, and did not see it; and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he turned him unto his disciples,.... Both to the twelve apostles, and seventy disciples;
and said privately; or to them apart: the phrase "privately" is wanting in the Vulgate Latin version:
blessed are the eyes that see the things that ye see; the person of the Messiah, his kingdom setting up in the world, miracles wrought by him, and Satan falling before him; :-.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See the notes at Matthew 13:16-17.

Verse Luke 10:23. Blessed are the eyes which see the things that ye see — There is a similar saying to this among the rabbins, in Sohar. Genes., where it is said, "Blessed is that generation which the earth shall bear, when the King Messiah cometh."
