Luke 10:4 Context
2Therefore said hee vnto them, The haruest truly is great, but the labourers are few; pray ye therefore the Lord of the haruest, that he would send foorth labourers into his haruest. 3Go your wayes: Behold, I send you forth as lambes among wolues. 4Cary neither purse nor scrip, nor shoes, and salute no man by the way. 5And into whatsoeuer house yee enter, first say, Peace bee to this house. 6And if the sonne of peace be there, your peace shall rest vpon it: if not, it shall turne to you againe.

10:4 Salute no man by the way - The salutations usual among the Jews took up much time. But these had so much work to do in so short a space, that they had not a moment to spare.
People's Bible Notes for Luke 10:4
Lu 10:4 Salute no man by the way. The Jewish salutations were very formal, hypocritical, and consumed much time. It is said that it often required from one to three hours to complete these formal salutations. The disciples were not to consume thus their precious time, nor did the Savior wish them to go through with foolish and insincere forms.
