マタイの福音書 21:16 JCB

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 21:16

Hearest thou what these say? They profess a great zeal for God's honour. They recognize that these cries implied high homage, if not actual worship, and appeal to Jesus to put a stop to such unseemly behaviour, approaching, as they would pretend, to formal blasphemy. Yea . Jesus replies that he hears what the children say, but sees no reason for silencing them; rather he proves that they were only fulfilling an old prophecy, originally, indeed, applied to Jehovah, but one which he claims... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 21:16

The ministry of the children. Children are always delighted with a little public excitement , and readily catch up the common enthusiasm; but we do not look to children for calm and intelligent judgments on great issues. To our Lord children always represented simple, guileless, unprejudiced souls, who put up no barriers against his teachings, or against the gracious influences which he strove to exert. These children would be lads from twelve years old upward. They caught up the words of... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Matthew 21:12-22

This paragraph contains the account of the barren fig-tree, and of the cleansing of the temple. See also Mark 11:12-19; Luke 19:45-48.Matthew 21:12And Jesus went into the temple of God ... - From Mark 11:11-15, it is probable that this cleansing of the temple did not take place on the day that he entered Jerusalem in triumph, but on the day following.He came and looked round upon all things, Mark says, and went out to Bethany with the twelve. On the day following, returning from Bethany, he saw... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 21:15-17

Matthew 21:15-17. When the chief priests, &c., saw the wonderful things he did The undeniable and astonishing miracles which he performed, and the children crying in the temple, and continuing the song which the multitude had begun, Hosanna to the son of David, they were sore displeased Inwardly vexed and filled with indignation. The works that Christ did recommended themselves to every man’s conscience: if they had any sense, they could not but own the miracle of them; and if any... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Matthew 21:12-17

120. Jesus cleanses the temple (Matthew 21:12-17; Mark 11:15-19; Luke 19:45-48)At the beginning of his public ministry Jesus had cleansed the temple (see John 2:13-25), but old practices had returned. Now that he had come to his messianic city he cleansed it again. By his action he showed God’s judgment on those who had forgotten the real purpose of religious exercises and used them chiefly to make money (Matthew 21:12-13).God was more pleased with Jesus’ action in healing the blind and the... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Matthew 21:16

And said unto him, Hearest thou what these are saying? And Jesus saith unto them, Yea, did ye never read; Out of the mouths of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise? And he left them, and went forth out of the city to Bethany, and lodged there.Again Jesus appealed to the Scriptures (see Psalms 8:2). The praise of the children Jesus did not reject. It was indeed fulfillment of prophecy and should have been recognized by the Pharisees as additional proof of the identity of the Holy One... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Matthew 21:14-16

Matthew 21:14-16. And the blind and the lame came to him, &c.— The opinion that Jesus was the Messiah now prevailed generally; for, while he was in the temple, the blind and the lame, and other diseased persons, were brought to him from all quarters, to be healed. Many such, no doubt, would be waiting in the several avenues of the temple to ask alms, at a time when there was so vast a concourse of people; and there seems a peculiar propriety in our Lord's multiplying these astonishing... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Matthew 21:1-17

B. Jesus’ presentation of Himself to Israel as her King 21:1-17Jesus came to Jerusalem to present Himself formally to the leaders of Israel as the nation’s Messiah. He did this when He entered Jerusalem as Isaiah and Zechariah predicted Messiah would appear."Jesus entered Jerusalem for the last time in a manner which showed that He was none other than the Messiah, the Son of David, who was coming to Sion to claim the city as His own." [Note: Tasker, p.197.] The events Matthew recorded in... read more

3. Jesus’ entrance into the temple 21:12-17 (cf. Mark 11:11 b, Mark 11:15-18; Luke 19:45-48)Matthew stressed Jesus’ cleansing of the temple as the work of David’s Son (Matthew 21:9; Matthew 21:15). This activity had great messianic significance. [Note: See the diagrams of Jerusalem and Herod’s Temple at the end of these notes.] read more
