The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 11:25

At that time ; season (Revised Version); ἐν ἐκείνῳ τῷ καιρῷ . St. Luke's phrase ("in that very hour," ἐν αὐτῇ τῇ ὥρᾳ ) is more precise, definitely connecting the utterance with the return of the seventy. St. Matthew's refers rather to that stage or period in his ministry (cf. Matthew 12:1 ; Matthew 14:1 ). Jesus answered . Only in Matthew. If we could suppose this to be the original context of the passage, the" answer" would probably refer to some expression of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 11:25

The revelation to babes. St. Luke associates these words with the return of the seventy from their triumphant mission ( Luke 10:21 ). Therefore we see that our Lord is not thinking only or chiefly of children, but rather of the childlike. To these God has revealed great truths which he has not given to the worldly wise. So, following the context of St. Matthew, we are reminded that the citizens of Capernaum and other towns missed the truth which a handful of fishermen had laid hold of. At... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 11:25

The Divine reserve. From some the higher truth is hidden; to some the higher truth is revealed. This cannot be explained by what is called the "sovereignty" of God; because we must think of God as acting on good judgment, though the materials of his judgment may be more than we can comprehend, or beyond our power to appreciate aright. Here the difficulty of the Divine reserve is not great. We can easily recognize the wisdom of leaving those who think themselves wise to their fancied wisdom;... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 11:25-27

Parallel passage: Luke 10:21 , Luke 10:22 , where the verses are recorded immediately after the return of the seventy. We know no other occasion which would be so likely to evoke this utterance. Although it is just possible that the seventy returned when our Lord was addressing the people in the manner related in the preceding verses of this chapter, it seems much more likely that a sense of a moral and not of a temporal connexion guided St. Matthew in his arrangement. What is true in a... read more

The joy of Christ over the penitent. I. THE THANKSGIVING . 1 . The Father ' s care for the lowly minded. 2 . The Father ' s love for the Son. The Lord Jesus seemed a man among men. He was rejected and despised. But, in truth, he was the almighty Son of God. All things had been given into his hand; all power was his. None knew him fully, in all the mystery and glory of his Divine personality, save only God the Father. Nor can any know the Father fully, save the Son. But... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Matthew 11:25-26

From the wise and prudent - That is, from those who “thought” themselves wise - “wise” according to the world’s estimation of wisdom, 1 Corinthians 1:26-27.Hast revealed them unto babes - To the poor, the ignorant, and the obscure; the teachable, the simple, the humble. By the wise and prudent here he had reference probably to the proud and haughty scribes and Pharisees in Capernaum. They rejected his gospel, but it was the pleasure of God to reveal it to obscure and more humble people. The... read more
