Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 23:8-11

a “But as for you, do not you be called Rabbi, b For one is your teacher (didaskalos), and all you are brothers. c And call no man your father on the earth, d For one is your Father, even he who is in heaven.” c Nor be you called esteemed teachers (kathegetes), b For one is your Esteemed Teacher (kathegetes), even the Christ. a But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant.” Note that in ‘a’ they are not to be called ‘my great one’, but in the parallel are to seek to be the humblest... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 23:1-12

Matthew 23:1-2 Kings : . Warnings to the People and the Disciples. Matthew 23:2 f. Loisy regards this as an interpolation (by a Judaising redactor) out of harmony with the attack that follows. Holtzmann thinks it is Mt.’ s, breathing special respect for the Law, like Matthew 5:17 ff., but irreconcilable with Matthew 15:3-2 Chronicles :. But, as Pfleiderer puts it, we must “ admit that in the attitude of Jesus towards the Mosaic Law different expressions which cannot be reconciled stand side... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 23:11-12

We have what is in Matthew 23:12 twice in Luke, Luke 14:11; Luke 18:14. These verses expound what went before, and let us know; 1. That it was not a title, but the affectation of a title, which he blamed. 2. Not a doctorship, or mastership, but such a doctorship or mastership as made a man too big for the ministry of the church; such honour as lifted up the man’s heart above his work. He is an infamous doctor in the church of Christ, who thinks himself too high or too great to be a minister in... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Matthew 23:1-12

CRITICAL NOTESMatthew 23:1. Then spake Jesus.—The day of grace is over for the leaders of the people; but for the people themselves there may still be hope; so the Lord of the temple turns to the multitude, the general throng of worshippers, mingled with whom were several of His own disciples, and solemnly warns them against their spiritual guides. There is every reason to suppose that many of the scribes and Pharisees were within hearing; for when He has finished what He has to say to the... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Matthew 23:1-39

Matthew's gospel twenty-three. Jesus has been at the temple and He was challenged as to His authority by these priests, and then He was asked questions by the scribes, the Pharisees, the Sadducees. And then Jesus finally asked them a question. "What do you think of Christ, whose son is He?" And when they said, "the son of David." He said, "How can He be the son of David, when David by the spirit called Him Lord?" And no father would ever call his son "lord". That's just so totally against the... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 23:1-39

Matthew 23:2 . Sit in Moses’ seat. The sanhedrim had seventy one chairs of gold, or rather gilt with gold. The council which sat at Alexandria had also chairs of gold. The highpriest was the president: he sat in the middle, with thirty five chairs on his right hand, and thirty five on his left. The number had its origin from the seventy elders consecrated by Moses. Whether our Lord meant to say that the scribes and pharisees were fairly put into power, or that they had usurped authority, is... read more

Matthew 23:8-12But be not ye called Rabbi. Christians are brethrenThe late Rev. Wm. Jay, in a sermon at Surrey Chapel, said “Some time ago a countryman observed to me, ‘I was exceedingly alarmed this morning, sir. I was going down in a lonely place, and I thought I saw a strange monster. It seemed in motion, but I could not make out its form. I didn’t like to turn back, but my heart beat, and the more I looked the more I was afraid. But, as we came nearer each other, I saw it was a man, and who... read more
