Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 17:14-16

The same history is told us both by Mark and Luke, but with considerable difference; we have it, Mark 9:17,Mark 9:18, thus, And one of the multitude answered and said, Master, I have brought unto thee my son, which hath a dumb spirit; and wheresoever he taketh him, he teareth him: and he foameth, and gnasheth with his teeth, and pineth away: and I spake to thy disciples that they should cast him out, and they could not. As an introduction to this, Mark saith, Mark 9:14-16, that when our Saviour... read more

CRITICAL NOTESMatthew 17:15. Lunatick.—Epileptic (R.V.). “The child was a possessed epileptic lunatic.”Matthew 17:20. Grain of mustard seed.—See note on Matthew 13:31. The proverbial type of the infinitely little (Plumptre). Ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence.—Such expressions are characteristic of the vivid imagery of Eastern speech generally. To “remove mountains” is to make difficulties vanish. The Jews used to say of an eminent teacher, he is “a rooter up of mountains” (see... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Matthew 17:1-27

Let's turn now in our Bibles to Matthew chapter seventeen. The seventeenth chapter of Matthew actually begins with the twenty-eighth verse of the sixteenth chapter. It's unfortunate that the men who divided the Bible into chapters and verses made the chapter distinction where they did. They should have taken and included the twenty-eighth verse of chapter sixteen into chapter seventeen, and it would have eliminated a lot of questions. Because Jesus is talking to His disciples there at Cesarea... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 17:1-27

Matthew 17:2 . He was transfigured before them. Μεταμορφωθη , was transformed before them. Matthew, Mark, and Luke record this vision; and name the three selected witnesses. Peter had just confessed the Divinity of the Lord, and received a blessing. James, the first martyr of the twelve, and John, had been surnamed sons of thunder. Now they were admitted to see the glory which the twelve had confessed; and it was, as it would seem, afore to prepare them to attest the agony of the Lord in... read more

Spiritual work can be done only by spiritual men (Mark 9:28-29; Acts 19:13-16). Correspondence in the worker to the work to be done is never overlooked in any other department of activity.

14 And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a certain man, kneeling down to him, and saying, Ver. 14. And when they were come to the multitude ] That was the next day after the transfiguration,Luke 9:37; Luke 9:37 , and in that nick of time, when the disciples could neither cure the lunatic nor answer their adversaries, Mark 9:14 , who had now sport enough to see them brought into the briers, and therefore jeered them before the people to some purpose. Most opportunely... read more

Whedon's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 17:14

14. Come to the multitude The preceding conversation, from Matthew 17:9, transpired as they descended the hill. Mark (chap. ix) tells us that this was on the second day after the transfiguration. The Lord found his disciples under question by the scribes for a failure to dispossess a demoniac. As the multitude saw our Lord himself approaching, they ran to him with great earnestness, as if believing that he would be able to accomplish the work. They salute our Lord with joyful reverence.... read more

§ 76. CASTING OUT OF A DUMB AND DEAF SPIRIT, Matthew 17:14-23 . As Moses, when he came down from the mount of God, found that his people had in his absence turned to idolatry and vice, so our Saviour, on coming from the mount of transfiguration, found that his disciples in his absence had neglected prayer and fasting, and become spiritually weak, and had rendered themselves liable to the taunts of adversaries and the rebukes of the Lord. Great is the contrast between the exaltation of the... read more
