John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 20:29

And as they departed from Jericho ,.... Which, was distant about ten parsas, or miles, from Jerusalem F9 Bartenora in Misn. Taraid, c. 3. sect. 8. , through which Christ just passed, and had met with Zacchaeus, and called him, and delivered the parable concerning a nobleman's going into a far country. The Syriac and Persic versions render the words, "when Jesus departed from Jericho"; and the Arabic, "when he went out of Jericho"; not alone, but "with his disciples", as Mark says; and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 20:30

And behold, two blind men ,.... Mark and Luke make mention but of one; which is no contradiction to Matthew; for they neither of them say that there was but one. A greater difficulty occurs in Luke's account; for whereas Matthew and Mark both agree, that it was when Jesus came out of Jericho, that this cure was wrought, Luke says it was "when he came nigh unto it"; which some reconcile by observing, that that phrase may be rendered, "while he was near Jericho"; and so only signifies his... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 20:31

And the multitude rebuked them ,.... Who were either the friends or enemies of Christ: if his friends, they might rebuke them, that they might not be so troublesome to him, and judging it unworthy of him to have anything to do with such mean persons, and supposing that their business was only to ask alms of him; or if they were his enemies, or not so well affected to him, they might chide them for giving him such high characters, as Lord, and Son of David; and therefore being displeased with... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 20:32

And Jesus stood still ,.... Made a full stop, when he was near, or right against where these blind men sat; which shows the strength of faith, the force of prayer, and the great regard Christ has to both: and called them : himself, being near unto them, and within the reach of his voice; or he commanded them to be brought to him, as Mark says: he ordered others to call them, or let them know, that it was his will they should come to him; upon which they threw away their garments, their... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 20:33

They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened. That is, that their sight might be restored to them; for being deprived of that, it was all one as if their eyes were so closed, that they could not open them; and so the recovery of it is expressed by an opening of them. The opening of the eyes of the blind was prophesied of, as what should be done in the days of the Messiah, and by him, as an evidence of his being that person, Isaiah 35:5 which prophecy these blind men might be... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - Matthew 20:34

So Jesus had compassion on them ,.... His bowels moved towards them as a man; he pitied their miserable and distressed condition, and discovered the tenderness of his heart towards them by some outward sign, by his looks, or by some gesture or another: parpat and touched their eyes ; with his bare hand, without the use of any instrument or medicine. The Ethiopic version adds; "and said unto them, according to your faith shall it be unto you"; which seems to be taken out of Matthew 9:29 .... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 20:18

The Son of man shall be betrayed - Or, will be delivered up. This is the third time that our Lord informed his disciples of his approaching sufferings and death. This was a subject of the utmost importance, and it was necessary they should be well prepared for such an awful event. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 20:19

Deliver him to the Gentiles to mock - This was done by Herod and his Roman soldiers. See Luke 23:11 . To scourge, and to crucify - This was done by Pilate, the Roman governor. The punishment of the cross was Roman not Jewish; but the chief priests condemned him to it, and the Romans executed the sentence. How little did they know that they were, by this process, jointly offering up that sacrifice which was to make an atonement for the Gentiles and for the Jews; an atonement for the sin... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 20:21

Grant that these my two sons - James and John. See Mark 15:40 . In the preceding chapter, Matthew 19:28 , our Lord had promised his disciples, that they should sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes. Salome, probably hearing of this, and understanding it literally, came to request the chief dignities in this new government for her sons; and it appears it was at their instigation that she made this request, for Mark, Mark 10:35 , informs us that these brethren themselves made... read more
