マタイによる福音書 22:24-31 JC

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

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

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:23-33

Jesus Confirms The Truth About The Resurrection And The Secondary Nature of Marriage (22:23-33). Jesus was now faced with the Sadducees. The Sadducees were mainly of the ruling parties and included the Chief Priests, and many of the aristocratic Elders. But here the ones who were sent were probably deliberately chosen from among those who had previously been ‘con-combative’. As with the approach of ‘the disciples of the Pharisees’ it was an attempt to challenge Him at another level. Their... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:24

‘Saying, “Teacher, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.” The Sadducees began by briefly outlining the law. Strictly the law said ‘a brother living in the same household’, but as the Book of Ruth demonstrates, it was sometimes applied on a wider basis. Note again the use of ‘Teacher’. They had earlier questioned His authority. Now they were pretending that they recognised His authority. There were no depths to which... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:25-27

“Now there were with us seven brothers, and the first married and deceased, and having no seed left his wife to his brother, in like manner the second also, and the third, to the seventh, and after them all, the woman died.” They then laid out the case where seven brothers died childless one after the other, each taking on the same wife in order to produce children for their brothers, after which the woman also died. Note the sad emphasis on a hopeless death. There was no resurrection here, not... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:28

“In the resurrection therefore whose wife shall she be of the seven? For they all had her.” So the question now was as to whose wife she would be in the resurrection, for she had been married to all and had had sexual relations with them all. Whichever one was selected they would have had arguments which would have demonstrated why that suggestion was wrong, for each one married the wife of the one above so as to produce an heir for that one, and to perpetuate his name. It was a question that... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:29

‘But Jesus answered and said unto them, “You go astray, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God.” ’ Jesus, however, pointed out that they went astray in their thinking for two reasons. Firstly because they did not know the Scriptures, and secondly because they did not appreciate the power of God. He then deals with these ideas in the reverse order in a typical chiasmus. read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:30

“For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as angels in heaven.” They failed to recognise the power of God because they limited Him to only being able to raise people in a way that would fit into earthly patterns. They did not accept the existence of ‘spirits’. But, Jesus points out, God was not so limited. For the truth is that in the resurrection men are ‘as angels in Heaven’, that is, like the angels they are ‘spirits’ (compare 1 Corinthians 15:44; 1... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:31

“But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying,” Having demonstrated the weakness of their argument Jesus then turned to what was ‘spoken by God’. Notice His emphasis on the fact that the Scriptures were ‘spoken by God’. Jesus constantly reveals His belief that the Scriptures reveal God’s words and God’s truth. But knowing their penchant for the Law He does not cite Isaiah 26:19 (or Daniel 12:2-3, although they may not have accepted Daniel... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:23-33

Matthew 22:23-Micah : . The Question of the Resurrection Life ( Mark 12:18-Daniel : *, Luke 20:27-Matthew :).— Mt.’ s changes are mostly in the direction of simplicity. As regards the question of the Sadducees, while Leviticus 18:16; Leviticus 20:21 forbid marriage with a dead brother’ s wife, Deuteronomy 25:5-2 Samuel : enjoins it in certain circumstances. The answer of Jesus ( Matthew 22:29 ff.) to their attempt to argue against resurrection by an imaginary complication of this kind is... read more
