E.W. Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes - Matthew 28:17

doubted = hesitated. Greek. distazo. Occurs only in Matthew (here and in Matthew 14:31 ). The Greek aorist may he so rendered, especially in a parenthesis; and is so rendered in Matthew 16:5 .Luke 8:29 . John 18:24 , it should be in Matthew 26:48 and in Luke 22:44 also. read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Matthew 28:16

But the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them.Matthew in this place recorded the official appearance of Christ to his disciples after the resurrection. There were other appearances, as already noted; but the others were more personal or incidental. This meeting, scheduled in advance, at a prearranged place, mentioned twice by Jesus and once by an angel - this meeting was the great appearance. It was attended by over five hundred disciples, as... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Matthew 28:17

And when they saw him, they worshipped him; but some doubted.It is a strong witness to the candor and accuracy of Matthew's account that the doubters should have been mentioned at that particular confrontation with Jesus. Only one passionately concerned with giving all the facts would have done so. The reason for their doubt was not recorded, but one probable explanation of it is in the next verse. read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Matthew 28:16-17

Matthew 28:16-17. Then the eleven disciples went away, &c.— The time now approached when Jesus was to shew himself publicly in Galilee, after having frequently shewn himself in a more private manner to his disciples and the women. This was in many respects the most remarkable of all his appearances. He promised it to his apostles before his death, ch. Matthew 26:32. The angels who attended at his resurrection, spoke of it to the women who came to his sepulchre, and represented it as... read more

16. Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee—but certainly not before the second week after the resurrection, and probably somewhat later. into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them—It should have been rendered "the mountain," meaning some certain mountain which He had named to them—probably the night before He suffered, when He said, "After I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee" (Matthew 26:32; Mark 14:28). What it was can only be conjectured; but of the two between which... read more

17. And when they saw him, they worshipped him; but some doubted—certainly none of "the Eleven," after what took place at previous interviews in Jerusalem. But if the five hundred were now present, we may well believe this of some of them. read more

Thomas Constable

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Matthew 28:16

"But" (NASB) is too strong a contrast for the Greek word de that occurs here and means "then" (NIV). However the action of the Eleven contrasts with the action of the guards (Matthew 28:15). We do not know the mountain to which Jesus had directed them and to which they went (cf. Matthew 26:32; Matthew 28:7; Matthew 28:10). Galilee, of course, was where Jesus began His ministry, and it had Gentile connotations because of the presence and proximity of many Gentiles. What Jesus would tell His... read more

4. The King’s final instructions to His disciples 28:16-20 (cf. Mark 16:15-18; 1 Corinthians 15:6)Whereas the chief priests used bribe money to commission the soldiers to spread lies, the resurrected Jesus used the promise of His power and presence to commission His disciples to spread the gospel. [Note: Carson, "Matthew," p. 590.] This is the final address that Matthew recorded Jesus giving. As usual, he used a narrative to lead up to the address. In this case the narrative consisted of the... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Matthew 28:17

When the Eleven finally saw Jesus, they worshipped Him. Yet some of them still had unresolved questions about how they should respond to Him. The word "doubted" (Gr. edistasan) means "hesitated" (cf. Matthew 14:31). [Note: I. P. Ellis, "’But some doubted,’" New Testament Studies 14 (1967-68):574-80.] Apparently Jesus’ resurrection did not immediately dispel all the questions that remained in the minds of His disciples. Perhaps, also, some of them still felt embarrassed about deserting Him and... read more
