The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 11:25-30
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

The knowledge of the Holy. The "things" to which our Lord here refers may be better gathered Item what follows than from what goes before. They arc evidently spiritual things ( Luke 19:42 ); things pertaining to— I. THE HIGHEST KNOWLEDGE . 1 . The knowledge of the Father. 2 . The knowledge of the Son. II. THE METHOD OF ITS COMMUNICATION . 1 . It is not attained by natural reason. 2 . It is attained by Divine revelation. III. THE ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 11:27
All things. Not in the widest sense, for this would forestall Matthew 28:18 but all things that are required for my work of manifesting the truth. The utterance is thus both closely parallel to John 8:28 , and also in most intimate connexion with the preceding verses. God's twofold action in hiding the truth from some and revealing it to others is, our Lord says, all of a piece with my whole work. This is all arranged by my Father, and the knowledge of God by any man is no chance... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 11:27
The Son and the Father. It is remarkable that Jesus almost always used the term "Father" when he spoke of God. And he used the term so constantly that it may even be treated as the key-note of the revelation which he brought. He came to earth in order to bring to men "good news of God;" and the good news may be gathered up into a sentence, "He is your Father. You ought to be anxious about standing in right relations with your Father." It is easy to show how that will open out into an answer... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 11:28
Come ( δεῦτε ); Matthew 4:19 , note. There is less thought of the process of coming than in the very similar invitation in John 7:37 . Unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden . The toilers and burdened ( οἱκοπιῶντες καὶ πεφορτισμένοι ). Our Lord purposely did not define in what the toil and burden consisted; for he would include all, from whatever quarter their toil and burden came. But since the spiritual is the central part of man ( Matthew 5:3 , note), the more... read more

Rest for the weary. We have here— I. A BURDEN . 1 . Some are laden with sin. 2 . Others groan under the distresses of life. II. A RELIEF . 1 . Christ offers pardon to the guilty. 2 . Christ offers purity to the unholy. 3 . Christ offers grace for the needy. III. THE MEANS . 1 . We must go to Christ. To this end we must seek him. In his house; at his table; at the footstool of his throne. 2 . W e must approach him humbly. ... read more

Yet freely invites all to him. Observe that, whether by "accident" or "design," Matthew 11:25-30 are a statement of the good news contained in the expression, "Jesus the Son of God," while Matthew 12:1-8 leads us to regard him as the Son of man. 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
