The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 10:25

It is enough ( ἀρκετόν ); Matthew 6:34 , note. It will quite content him; it is sufficient for his aims and wishes ( Hebrews 13:5 : John 14:8 ). So Talm. Bab., 'Berach.,' 58b, R. Ula comforts Rub Hisda for the desolation of a friend's house which he formerly knew in its prosperity, by reminding him that the temple too is in ruins, and "It is sufficient for the servant that he be as his master ( וברך אהיש דבעל ויד )." For the disciple . Here (unlike Matthew 6:24... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 10:25

The common lot of master and servant. Point out the connection in which this text stands. Christ illustrated what was his claim on men, and what was involved in becoming citizens of his kingdom, by sending out his apostles on a trial or model mission. He corrects certain wrong impressions and false expectations in this passage. Those apostles will not meet with all the success they anticipate. They will repeat his own story of thankless labour and reproach. I. THE IDEA OF A TRUE ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 10:26-33

Parallel passage: Luke 12:2-9 , where it follows the warning against the leaven of the Pharisees. A similar saying to Luke 12:26 (parallel passage: Luke 12:2 ) is also found in Mark 4:22 (parallel passage: Luke 8:17 ). Though the two sayings are probably distinct, yet it is very possible that one may have been modified from the other in being reported. Fear them not therefore . These words are in Matthew only. Therefore. Since the Master bore such treatment. For . Hardly—Fear... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 10:27

The parallel passage, Luke 12:3 , is verbally similar, but of reverse meaning. In Matthew it is a charge to the disciples to proclaim publicly what Christ tells them privately; in Luke it is a statement that what they say privately shall be proclaimed publicly. St. Luke gives only another side of the preceding verse; St. Matthew, a fresh point. The connexion with verse 26 is—Do not cover up your relation to me, but say out bravely the message that I give you. What I tell you . There is no... read more

And . Restating Matthew 10:26 from a different point of view. Fear not ; be not afraid of (Revised Version); μὴ φοβηθῆτε ἀπό . So Westcott and Herr, with B ( sic ) and two or three other authorities. The Revised Version (cf. Authorized Version parallel passage, Luke 12:4 ) expresses the greater difference from Matthew 10:26 and Matthew 10:28 ( φοβηθῆτε ἀπό with genitive, a Hebraism expressing avoidance, shrinking, cowardly dreas ; φοβηθῆτε with... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 10:28

What to fear. Fear has a place in the economy of life, but the common mistake of people is to put it in the wrong place. We have dangers, but not where we commonly look for them. There is a needless fear which should be discouraged, am! there is a necessary fear which has to be cultivated. I. THE DISCOURAGEMENT OF NEEDLESS FEAR . 1 . In what it consists. This is the fear of man. The apostles were sent out as sheep among wolves. The gathering opposition of the authorities... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 10:29

Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? The form of the saying in Luke 12:6 is practically equivalent ("Are not five sparrows sold for two farthings?"); for sparrows are so common and cheap that if a man buys two farthings' worth he gets one thrown in. "At the present day the markets of Jerusalem and Jaffa are attended by many 'f owlets,' who offer for sale long strings of little birds of various species, chiefly sparrows, wagtails, and larks. These are also frequently sold ready... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 10:29

The Lord of the sparrows. The connection of this illustration should be noticed. Our Lord bids the first missionaries stand even on the house-tops, and freely speak out his message; but he , in effect , adds, "In doing this you will meet with dangers not a few. You will meet with enemies, some of whom will not stop short—if only their power will reach so far—of bloody issues. But fear not. You are watched and protected at every step, and come life, come death, you are safe." Van... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 10:30

But the very hairs of your head. "Your" emphatic, in contrast to the care bestowed on sparrows. (For the thought, compare not only the parallel passage, Luke 12:7 , but also Luke 21:18 ; Acts 27:34 .) Are all numbered . Perhaps long since ( ἠριθμημέναι εἰσίν ). When Job complained the Lord answered him, "Many hairs have! made on man, and for every single hair its own pit, that not two hairs should draw their sustenance from one pit … shall I make no mistake about this, and... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 10:31

The minuteness of this care forbids you to fear; it is clear from it that you are worth more than even many sparrows. Fear ye (the Revised Version omits ye ) not. The absence of ὑμεῖς lays all the more stress on the verb. Therefore . As the hairs of your head are all numbered; the following words are thus epexegetic. Ye . Emphatic here; ye who are God's sons. The thought is stronger than even that of the "faithful Creator," in 1 Peter 4:19 . Are of more value than many... read more
