Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 16:14

And the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all these things; and they scoffed at him.CONNECTIVE TEACHINGLovers of money ... One finds it simply impossible to understand why some commentators strive to question a statement of this kind. Ray Summers, for example, implied that the other synoptics do not fully support Luke's charge here that the Pharisees were lovers of money; but he neglected to explain why the sacred historian needed any such support. If there had not been another word in... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 16:15

And he said unto them, Ye are they that justify yourselves in the sight of men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is exalted among men is an abomination in the sight of God.The men Jesus addressed here "tended to connect earthly prosperity and goodness. Wealth was a sign that a man was a good man."[28] However, mere material prosperity, unsanctified by spiritual motivation and consciousness of stewardship under God, is here called an abomination in the sight of God. read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 16:16

The law and the prophets were until John: from that time the gospel of the kingdom of God is preached; and every man entereth violently into it.It is a mistake to view Matthew 11:12,13 as a parallel with this.Why could not Jesus on two occasions or still more have made statements about John as a transitional person and about the violent pressing into the kingdom?[29]Whatever is meant by "violently," this must be viewed as improper and reprehensible on the part of those thus seeking to enter the... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 16:17

But it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than for one tittle of the law to fail.This statement of Jesus has in view the changing and perversion of God's law by the Pharisees, who had perverted the moral requirements of it (as in the case of easy divorce, mentioned a moment later) in many ways, even seeking to change the nature of the kingdom God had promised to set up. They wanted an earthly kingdom, a Messiah on a white horse who would throw out the Romans! Jesus here reminded them... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Luke 16:14

Luke 16:14. And they derided him.— The original word is very emphatical; εξεμυκτηριζον : "They mocked him by a scornful motion of the mouth and nose,"—as well as by what they spake to him. The word might be rendered they sneered. There was a gravity and dignity in our Lord's discourse, which, insolent as they were, would not permit them to laugh out; but by some scornful air they hinted to each other their mutual contempt. read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Luke 16:16-18

Luke 16:16-18. The law and the prophets were until John:— Our Lord having in the preceding verse developed the specious and hypocritical pretences of the Pharisees, observes to them, with respect to his own conduct, which they blamed so much, that the law and the prophets, the dispensation which made a distinction between men, accountingsome clean and others unclean, continued till John came; and that from the commencement of his ministry, the kingdom of heaven, or gospel dispensation, was in... read more

The law, c.—(See :-). and every man presseth, &c.—Publicans and sinners, all indiscriminately, are eagerly pressing into it and ye, interested adherents of the mere forms of an economy which is passing away, "discerning not the signs of this time," will allow the tide to go past you and be found a stranded monument of blindness and obstinacy. read more
