マタイによる福音書 21:8-10 JC

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 21:8

A very great multitude; ὁδε Ì πλεῖστος ὀ ì χλος : Revised Version, the most part of the multitude . This interpretation has classical authority (see Alford), but the words may well mean," the very great multitude;" Vulgate, plurima autem turba . This crowd was composed of pilgrims who were coming to the festival at Jerusalem, and "the whole multitude of the disciples" ( Luke 19:37 ). Spread their garments ( ἱμα ì τια ) in the way. Fired with... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 21:9

The multitudes that went before, and that followed . These expressions point to two separate bodies, which combined in escorting Jesus at a certain portion of the route. We learn from St. John ( John 12:18 ) that much people, greatly excited by the news of the raising of Lazarus, when they heard that he was in the neighbourhood, hurried forth from Jerusalem to meet and do him honour. These, when they met the other procession with Jesus riding in the midst, turned back again and preceded... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 21:10

Was come into Jerusalem. Those who consider that the day of this event was the tenth of Nisan see a peculiar fitness in the entry occurring on this day. On the tenth of this month the Paschal lamb was selected and taken up preparatory to its sacrifice four days after ( Exodus 12:3 , Exodus 12:6 ). So the true Paschal Lamb now is escorted to the place where alone the Passover could be sacrificed. Taking A.D. 30 to be the date of the Crucifixion, astronomers inform us that in that year the... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Matthew 21:8

And a very great multitude ... - Others showed the same respect by throwing their garments before him; others by cutting down branches of trees and casting them in the way. This was the way in which conquerors and princes were often honored. To cast flowers, or garlands, or evergreens before a warrior returning from victory, or a king entering into his kingdom, was a common way of testifying joyful and triumphant feeling. Thus Josephus says that Alexander and Agrippa were received at Jerusalem.... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Matthew 21:9

Hosanna to the son of David ... - The word “hosanna” means “save now,” or “save, I beseech thee.” It is a Syriac word, and was a form of acclamation used among the Jews. It was probably used in the celebration of their great festivals. During those festivals they sang Psalms 115:0; Psalms 116:0; Psalms 117:1-2; Psalms 118:0. In the chanting or singing of those psalms, the Jewish writers inform us that the people responded frequently “hallelujah, or hosanna.” Their use of it on this occasion was... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Matthew 21:10

And when he was come into Jerusalem, all the city was moved - There was great excitement. The sight of such a multitude, the shouts of the people, and the triumphant procession through the city, excited much attention and inquiry. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 21:6-8

Matthew 21:6-8. The disciples went, &c. ( and found even as he had said unto them, Luke,) found his prediction exactly true. And how convincing must this have been of the divine mission of Jesus, not only to the two disciples that were sent, but to every unprejudiced person in that great multitude who were witnesses to his uttering the prediction, and saw the disciples bring the ass and the colt, and heard their testimony, that they had found every thing as Christ had foretold. This... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 21:9-11

Matthew 21:9-11. And the multitude that went before, and that followed In this triumphal procession, cried, saying Probably from a divine impulse; for certainly most of them understood not the words they uttered, Hosanna ( Lord, save us,) which was a solemn word in frequent use among the Jews. The meaning is, “We sing Hosanna to the son of David. Blessed is he, the Messiah, of the Lord. Save, thou that art in the highest heavens.” Our Lord restrained all public tokens of honour from the... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Matthew 21:1-11

FINAL TEACHING IN JERUSALEM119. The triumphal entry (Matthew 21:1-11; Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:28-44; John 12:12-19)The time had now come for Jesus to challenge his opponents openly by a clear public demonstration that he was Israel’s Messiah. The Jewish leaders wanted to arrest him, but when told of his whereabouts they feared to take action. They were unsure of the extent of Jesus’ popular support (cf. John 11:57; John 12:9-11).To make sure that nothing stopped him from making a bold public... read more
