Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Luke 7:19-35

All this discourse concerning John Baptist, occasioned by his sending to ask whether he was the Messiah or no, we had, much as it is here related, Matt. 11:2-19. I. We have here the message John Baptist sent to Christ, and the return he made to it. Observe, 1. The great thing we are to enquire concerning Christ is whether he be he that should come to redeem and save sinners, or whether we are to look for another, Luke 7:19, 20. We are sure that God has promised that a Saviour shall come, an... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Luke 7:18-29

7:18-29 John's disciples told him about all these things; so John called two of his disciples and sent them to the Lord saying, "Are you he who is to come, or, are we to look for another?" When they arrived, the men said to him, "John, the Baptizer, has sent us to you. Are you the One who is to come," he asks, "or are we to look for another?" At that time he cured many of their diseases and afflictions and of evil spirits, and to many blind people he gave the gift of sight. "Go," he answered... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 7:24

And when the messengers of John were departed ,.... The Syriac and Persic versions read, "the disciples of John"; and the Arabic version, "the two disciples of John"; the two that he sent, when they were gone back with the answer of Christ; he, "Jesus", as the Persic version expresses it, began to speak unto the people concerning John; not caring to say any thing about him to the messengers, or whilst they were present, lest he should be charged with flattery; See Gill on Matthew... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 7:25

But what went you out for to see ?.... If not his air and action, what was it? was it his apparel and dress? was it to see a man clothed in soft raiment? If this was the case, their labour was in vain, and they had their walk for nothing; for John was clothed with camels' hair, rough and undressed, and was girt with a leathern girdle; there was nothing in his person, mien, and garb, that was attractive: they which are gorgeously, apparelled ; or richly clothed, as John was not: ... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Luke 7:26

But what went ye out for to see ?.... What led your curiosity to go into the wilderness after him, since it could not be any of the above things? was it to see a prophet ? which was the case; for John was a prophet, and was known to be one; and the fame of him, as such, drew vast numbers to see and hear him, there not having been a prophet among the Jews, for some hundreds of years: yea, I say unto you, and much more than a prophet ; not that he was the prophet Moses did say should... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Luke 7:18-35

The message of John Baptist, and the discourse occasioned by it. Various answers, not now to be discussed, have been given to the question—Why did John send the two followers with the message recorded? The message does seem to imply that the confidence of the Baptist had become overcast by the sorrow of the passing hour. Would it have been strange if, hearing of Jesus in the flood-tide of popular enthusiasm, working and speaking in the power of the Lord, a moment's feeling of weariness... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Luke 7:18-35

The deputation from John. Jesus pursued a policy of mercy and of salvation. He healed all who asked for healing or were brought to him; he raised the dead; he was a Philanthropist rather than a Judge. The fame of his miracles was spread abroad, and made its way to the castle and its keep, where John the Baptist was now Herod's prisoner. The result is a deputation of two disciples sent by the illustrious prisoner to Jesus. We are to study the interview and the subsequent panegyric on John. ... read more
