馬太福音 27:8-10 RCUVTS

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Matthew 27:1-10

We left Christ in the hands of the chief priests and elders, condemned to die, but they could only show their teeth; about two years before this the Romans had taken from the Jews the power of capital punishment; they could put no man to death, and therefore early in the morning another council is held, to consider what is to be done. And here we are told what was done in that morning?council, after they had been for two or three hours consulting with their pillows. I. Christ is delivered up... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - Matthew 27:3-10

27:3-10 When Judas the traitor saw that Jesus had been condemned, he repented, and he brought the thirty shekels back to the chief priests and the elders. "I have sinned," he said, "for I have betrayed an innocent man." "What has that got to do with us?" they said. "It is you who must see to that." He threw the money into the Temple and went away. And when he had gone away, he hanged himself. The chief priests took the money. "We cannot," they said, "put these into the treasury, for they are... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 27:8

Wherefore that field was called ,.... Not by the priests and elders, but by the common people, who knew by what money it was purchased, the field of blood ; or "Aceldama", which so signifies, as in Acts 1:19 , not called the field of the priests, the purchasers; nor the field of the strangers, for whom it was bought; but the field of blood, being purchased with that money, for which innocent blood was betrayed; and this name it bore unto this day ; in which Matthew wrote his... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 27:9

Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet ,.... Through the purchasing of the potter's field with the thirty pieces of silver, the price that Christ was valued at, a prophecy in the writings of the Old Testament had its accomplishment: but about this there is some difficulty. The evangelist here says it was spoken by Jeremy the prophet; whereas in his prophecy there is no mention of any such thing. There is indeed an account of his buying his uncle Hanameel's son's... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 27:10

And gave them for the potter's field ,.... In the prophet it is, "and I cast them to the potter in the house of the Lord", Zechariah 11:13 ; whereas here it is, "they gave them"; but the word Matthew uses may be rendered, "I gave", as it is by the Syriac; and as the last words require it should, "as the Lord commanded me"; otherwise there will be no coherence between them: and whereas the thirty pieces of silver are, in the prophet, said to be cast, or given "to the potter", and here, "for... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:8

The field of blood - In vain do the wicked attempt to conceal themselves; God makes them instrumental in discovering their own wickedness. Judas, by returning the money, and the priests, by laying it out, raise to themselves an eternal monument - the one of his treachery, the others of their perfidiousness, and both of the innocence of Jesus Christ. As, long as the Jewish polity continued, it might be said, "This is the field that was bought from the potter with the money which Judas got... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:9

Jeremy the prophet - The words quoted here are not found in the Prophet Jeremiah, but in Zechariah 11:13 . But St. Jerome says that a Hebrew of the sect of the Nazarenes showed him this prophecy in a Hebrew apocryphal copy of Jeremiah; but probably they were inserted there only to countenance the quotation here. One of Colbert's, a MS. of the eleventh century, has Ζαχαριου , Zechariah; so has the later Syriac in the margin, and a copy of the Arabic quoted by Bengel. In a very elegant... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:8

Verse 8 8.For a burying-place to strangers. The more that wicked men endeavor to conceal their enormities, the more does the Lord watch over them to bring those enormities to light. They hoped that, by an honorable disguise, they would bury their crime, were they to purchase a barren field for burying strangers. But the wonderful providence of God turns this arrangement to an opposite result, so that this field became a perpetual memorial of that treason, which had formerly been little known.... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:9

Verse 9 9.Then was fulfilled what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet. How the name of Jeremiah crept in, I confess that I do not know nor do I give myself much trouble to inquire. The passage itself plainly shows that the name of Jeremiah has been put down by mistake, instead of Zechariah, (Zechariah 11:13;) for in Jeremiah we find nothing of this sort, nor any thing that even approaches to it. Now that other passage, if some degree of skill be not used in applying it, might seem to have been... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 27:10

Verse 10 10.As the Lord appointed me. By this clause Matthew confirms the statement, that this was not done without the providence of God; because, while they have a different object in view, they unconsciously fulfill an ancient prediction. For how could it have occurred to them to purchase a field from a potter, if the Lord had not turned their blameworthy conduct so as to carry into execution his own purpose? read more
