马太福音 21:42 CUVS

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 21:33-46

Goodness and severity. In this parable Jesus sets forth the privileges, the sins, and the impending ruin of the Jewish people. It brings before us for our admonition— I. WHAT THE LORD DID FOR HIS PEOPLE . 1 . He became a Father to them. 2 . He gave them a rich inheritance. 3 . He made every provision for their benefit. (a) By the "law of commandments contained in ordinances" he separated his people from the idolatrous nations surrounding. (b) His... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 21:42

Did ye never read? It is as though Christ said, "Ye have answered rightly. You profess to know the Scriptures well; do you not, then, apprehend that Holy Writ foretells that concerning Messiah and his enemies which you have just announced?" The imagery is changed, but the subject is the same as in the preceding parable. The vineyard is now a building; the husbandmen are the builders; the Son is the stone. In the Scriptures. The quotation is from Psalms 118:22 , Psalms 118:23 —the same... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 21:42

The history of the Cornerstone. Foundations are not now laid as in olden times. Foundation stones are now mere ornaments. There is no sense in which buildings now rest on them. Memorial stones are taking the place of foundation stones. Probably the figure of the "cornerstone" is taken from the corner of Mount Moriah, which had to be built up from the valley, in order to make a square area for the temple courts. Dean Plumptre says, "In the primary meaning of the psalm, the illustration... read more

Matthew 21:42-43. Jesus saith unto them Luke says, εμβλεψας αυτοις , ειπε , having looked on them, namely, with great compassion and solemnity in his countenance, he said, Did ye never read, or never reflect upon this remarkable passage in the Scriptures, The stone which the builders refused, &c.?

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Matthew 21:33-46

123. The wicked vineyard keepers (Matthew 21:33-46; Mark 12:1-12; Luke 20:9-18)This parable pictures Israel as a vineyard, God as the owner of the vineyard, and the Jewish religious leaders as the tenants who looked after it. Just as the tenants beat and killed the servants whom the owner sent to them, so Israel’s leaders persecuted and killed God’s messengers, from Old Testament prophets to John the Baptist. Now they were about to reject God’s Son himself (Matthew 21:33-39). By rejecting him... read more

Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, The same was made the head of the corner; This was from the Lord, And it is marvelous in our eyes?Christ quoted Psalms 118:22ff. The example of a rejected stone becoming the chief stone was founded on historical fact. Dean Plumptre said:The illustration seems to have been drawn from one of the stones, quarried, hewn, and marked, away from the site of the temple, which the builders, ignorant of the... read more

When the Lord therefore—cometh— According to St. Mark and St. Luke, Jesus answered this question himself; which, according to St. Matthew, the priests answered: this apparent inconsistency may be reconciled by supposing, that after they had said to him, God forbid! as St. Luke tells us, they repeated his words ironically,—he will miserably destroy those wicked men, &c. speaking with a tone of voice expressive of the disposition of their mind, and then added contemptuously,... read more
