馬太福音 7:22-24 RCUVTS

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 7:23

(Cf. Luke 13:27 .) And then will I profess unto them . Openly in the face of all men (cf. Matthew 10:32 ). I never knew you . Even when you did all these miracles. etc., I had not that personal knowledge of you which is only the result of heart-sympathy. There was never anything in common between you and me. Although this is, perhaps, the only example of this sense of ἔγνων in the synoptic Gospels, it is common in John. Depart from me . The absence of recognition by Christ,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 7:24

Therefore whosoever hoareth; Revised Version, every one therefore which heareth ( πᾶς οὖν ὅστις , Matthew 10:32 ). The relative used lays stress on the quality implied in the verb: every one who is of the kind that hears (contrast Matthew 7:26 ). These sayings (Revised Version, words ) of mine, and doeth them . Not the individual utterances ( ῥήματα , John 6:63 ), nor the substance of my message considered as a whole ( λόγον , Matthew 13:1-58 : (19) ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 7:24-27

Parallel passage: Luke 6:47-49 (cf. also Ezekiel 13:10-16 ). A solemn close to the sermon. By the similitude of two builders our Lord warns his followers that to have heard his words will have been useless unless they put them into practice. Observe that although the word " hear ' in these verses cannot indicate that full " hearing " which it sometimes connotes ( Matthew 10:14 ), yet it seems to mean more than merely listening, and to imply both a grasp of what is intended by... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 7:24-27

The rock and the sand. Christ turns from the judgment of the teacher, in the parable of the tree and the fruit, to the judgment of the hearer, in the parable now before us. The hearer is responsible as well as the teacher. I. LIVING IS BUILDING . Every man is building himself a house, for all life-work is the putting together of a habitation in which the worker will have to dwell. Some build feebly and set up but slight structures, mere huts and shanties. Others work with more... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Matthew 7:23

Profess unto them - Say unto them; plainly declare.I never knew you - That is, I never approved of your conduct; never loved you; never regarded you as my friends. See Psalms 1:6; 2 Timothy 2:19; 1 Corinthians 8:3. This proves that, with all their pretensions, they had never been true followers of Christ. Jesus will not then say to false prophets and false professors of religion that he had once known them and then rejected them; that they had been once Christians and then had fallen away; that... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Matthew 7:24-27

Jesus closes the sermon on the mount by a beautiful comparison, illustrating the benefit of attending to his words. It was not sufficient to “hear” them; they must be “obeyed.” He compares the man who should hear and obey him to a man who built his house on a rock. Palestine was to a considerable extent a land of hills and mountains. Like other countries of that description, it was subject to sudden and violent rains. The Jordan, the principal stream, was annually swollen to a great extent, and... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 7:22-23

Matthew 7:22-23. Many will say to me in that day Many, both preachers and hearers, both ministers and people, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? Have we not declared the mysteries of thy kingdom; preached excellent sermons; written edifying books; explained and enforced the doctrines of thy word, even the prophecies thereof, and shown their fulfilment: nay, have we not ourselves foretold future events, and in thy name have cast out devils From those possessed by them, and... read more

Matthew 7:24-27 . Therefore, whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, &c. In these words our Lord attests, in the most solemn manner, the certain truth and infinite importance of all he had delivered in the foregoing sermon, and applies it to the consciences of his hearers. Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them Whosoever he be that hears, considers, understands, believes, and obeys the doctrine which I have now taught you; I will liken him unto a wise man which... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Matthew 7:13-29

45. The two ways (Matthew 7:13-29; Luke 6:43-49)There are two ways of life. One is the easy way of pleasing self, which most choose and which leads to destruction. The other is the narrow way of denying self for Jesus’ sake, which leads to life (Matthew 7:13-14).One reason why many do not follow the narrow way is that they are deceived by those who teach their own views on how people can find meaning in life. Their teaching at first sounds reasonable, but in the end it proves to be destructive.... read more
