Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Matthew 10:24

A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his lord.Christ's followers shall receive the same type of opposition, hatred, and persecution that he received. The same expression is also used in John 15:20. Christ also used it to mean that the disciples of the Pharisees were as blind as their leaders (Luke 6:40) and that, as Christ humbly washed the feet of others, so should his disciples (John 13:16). Tertullian used the words of the verse to teach that no disciple may advocate a... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Matthew 10:25

It is enough for the disciple that he be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more them of his household?On this place, Adam Clarke pointedly wrote,Can any man who pretends to be a scholar or disciple of Jesus Christ expect to be treated well by the world? Will not the world love its own? and them only? Why then so much impatience under suffering, such an excessive sense of injuries, such delicacy? Can you expect anything... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Matthew 10:24-25

Matthew 10:24-25. The disciple is not above his master, &c.— "That you may bear all with a becoming fortitude, consider that they have calumniated, traduced, and persecuted me your Master; for which cause you, my disciples, cannot think it hard ifthey calumniate and persecute you." This is a proverbial expression, which our Lord applies on different occasions. Here, and Joh 15:20 it relates to the persecutions that his disciples were to undergo. It is applied to another subject,John 13:16.... read more

25. It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub—All the Greek manuscripts, write "Beelzebul," which undoubtedly is the right form of this word. The other reading came in no doubt from the Old Testament "Baalzebub," the god of Ekron ( :-), which it was designed to express. As all idolatry was regarded as devil worship (Leviticus 17:7; Deuteronomy 32:17; Psalms 106:37; 1 Corinthians 10:20), so there... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Matthew 10:5-42

3. Jesus’ charge concerning His apostles’ mission 10:5-42Matthew proceeded to record Jesus’ second major discourse in his Gospel: the Mission Discourse. It contains the instructions Jesus gave the 12 Apostles before He sent them out to proclaim the nearness of the messianic kingdom. Kingsbury saw the theme of this speech as "the mission of the disciples to Israel" and outlined it as follows: (I) On Being Sent to the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel (Matthew 10:5-15); (II) On Responding to... read more

The perils of their mission 10:16-25Jesus proceeded to elaborate on the dangers the apostles would face and how they should deal with them.In His descriptions of the opposition His disciples would experience, Jesus looked beyond His death to the time of tribulation that would follow. Then the disciples would have the same message and the same power as they did when He sent them out here. The narrow road leading to the kingdom led through a period of tribulation and persecution for the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Matthew 10:24-25

Jesus’ point was that persecution should not surprise His disciples. They had seen the scribes and Pharisees, and even John’s disciples, oppose Jesus. They could expect the same treatment.Beelzebul was Satan, the head of the household of demons (Matthew 12:24-27). The word "Beelzebul" probably came from the Hebrew baal zebul meaning "Prince Baal." Baal was the chief Canaanite deity, and the Jews regarded him as the personification of all that was evil and satanic. The house in view is Israel.... read more
