馬太福音 22:37 CUNPTS

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Matthew 22:34-46

"But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together. (35) Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying, (36) Master, which is the great commandment in the law? (37) Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. (38) This is the first and great commandment. (39) And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as... read more

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:34-40

34-40 An interpreter of the law asked our Lord a question, to try, not so much his knowledge, as his judgment. The love of God is the first and great commandment, and the sum of all the commands of the first table. Our love of God must be sincere, not in word and tongue only. All our love is too little to bestow upon him, therefore all the powers of the soul must be engaged for him, and carried out toward him. To love our neighbour as ourselves, is the second great commandment. There is a... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Matthew 22:1-99

Matthew 22 BUT THE LORD calmly pursued what He had to say to them, so in the opening of this chapter we have the parable of the marriage of the king’s son, which predicts the Gospel day which was about to dawn. There is no question, “What think ye?” about this parable, for it travels beyond men’s thoughts altogether. It is also distinguished from the other two parables by beginning, “The kingdom of heaven is like,” or, more literally, “has become like.” Men come under Heaven’s jurisdiction by... read more

D. The Attack of the Pharisees, and the Victory of the Lord. Matthew 22:34-46(Mark 12:28-37; Luke 20:41-44.—The Gospel for the 18th Sunday after Trinity.)34But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Sadducees to silence, they were gathered together [collected in the same place, συνήχθησαν ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό]. 35Then one of them, which [who] was a lawyer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying,29 36Master, which is the great commandment [what kind of commandment is great] in the... read more

Alexander MacLaren's Expositions of Holy Scripture - Matthew 22:34-46

Matthew THE TABLES TURNED: THE QUESTIONERS QUESTIONED Mat_22:34 . Herodians, Sadducees, Pharisees, who were at daggers drawn with each other, patched up an alliance against Jesus, whom they all hated. Their questions were cunningly contrived to entangle Him in the cobwebs of casuistry and theological hair-splitting, but He walked through the fine-spun snares as a lion might stalk away with the nooses set for him dangling behind him. The last of the three questions put to Jesus, and the one... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Matthew 22:34-46

the Summary of the Law Matthew 22:34-46 Our Lord seemed to say: “Here is all Scripture in a nutshell; the whole range of human duty in a portable pocket form.” We are reminded of Ecclesiastes 12:13 . But what a magnificent definition is here given of pure and undefiled religion! The whole Law is gathered up in that one word love! See Romans 13:8-10 . In Mark 12:33 the word strength is added. There are four channels of love. The heart stands for our emotions; the soul for our will and... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Matthew 22:1-46

The first two parables contained the history of the Hebrew nation up to the slaying of the Son. This one is prophetic. It presents the sin of this people in the light of the day of grace. The King sends His messengers first "to call them that were bidden." "They would not come." A second appeal is made-the mission of the Holy Spirit through the apostles. Of this the people made light. Each went to the material interest of the moment, his farm, his merchandise. The only attention they paid to... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 22:37

GOD AND MY NEIGHBOUR‘Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.’ Matthew 22:37 Modern love is inadequate to modern needs. Why? I. The inspiration of true love.—The answer lies in the text. Note the order in which the commandments are given. The first, the great command, is ‘Love God,’ the second is ‘Love your neighbour.’ That... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:1-46

The Question Of Jesus’ Authority (21:37-22:46). While, as we have seen above, the section from Matthew 19:3 to Matthew 22:46 forms a complete section in itself, enclosed within a dissertation on true leadership (Matthew 21:18) and a dissertation on false leadership (Matthew 21:23), this sub-section on authority also forms a unit. It commences with a challenge by the leadership concerning His authority (Matthew 21:23-27) and finishes with a challenge by Jesus concerning His authority (Matthew... read more
