Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Luke 11:42

But woe unto you Pharisees! for ye tithe mint and rue and every herb, and pass over justice and the love of God; but these ought ye to have done and not to leave the other undone. Woe unto you Pharisees! for ye love the chief seats in the synagogues, and the salutations in the marketplaces. Woe unto you! for ye are as the tombs which appear not, and the men that walk over them know it not.THREE "WOES" AGAINST THE PHARISEESAlthough suggestive of the longer list of "woes" recorded in Matthew 23,... read more

42. mint . . . rue, c.—rounding on Leviticus 27:30, which they interpreted rigidly. Our Lord purposely names the most trifling products of the earth, as examples of what they punctiliously exacted the tenth of. judgment and the love of God—in Matthew 23:25, "judgment, mercy, and faith." The reference is to Micah 6:6-8, whose third element of all acceptable religion, "walking humbly with God," comprehends both "love" and "faith." (See on Matthew 23:25- : Matthew 23:25- :). The same tendency to... read more

5. The climax of Pharisaic opposition 11:37-54 (cf. Matthew 23:1-36; Mark 12:38-40)The theme of opposition to Jesus continues in this section, but the source of opposition changes from the people generally to the Pharisees and, even more particularly, to their lawyers (scribes). Jesus’ responses also changed from warnings and exhortations to denunciations. Jesus condemned the teachings of the Pharisees, the light that was darkness (Luke 11:35), rather than the Pharisees and the lawyers as... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Luke 11:42-43

The Pharisees typically tithed scrupulously, even their garden herbs, two of which Jesus specified (cf. Leviticus 27:30-33; Deuteronomy 14:22-29; Deuteronomy 26:12-15). This was acceptable to Jesus, but they neglected giving more important things to God including justice and love. Normally the leaders of the synagogues occupied the front seats, so Jesus was criticizing the Pharisees’ love of position and glory. Respectful greetings in public places pandered to their pride too. read more

Three woes against the Pharisees 11:42-44Jesus now specified two examples of the Pharisees’ spiritual myopia (Luke 11:42-43), and then He compared them to something similar that defiles (Luke 11:44). Emphasis on externals leads to error. When people "concentrate on the trivial they are apt to overlook the important." [Note: Morris, p. 204.] Jesus announced His condemnation with the use of "woe." read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Luke 11:1-54

The Lord’s Prayer. The Sign of Jonah1-4. The Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9-15). See on Mt. If the Lord’s Prayer was given only once, St. Luke is probably right as to the occasion. His version, however (as in the case of the Beatitudes), is manifestly inferior to St. Matthew’s. Of the seven petitions he omits two—the third (’Thy will be done,’ etc.), and the seventh (’but deliver us from the evil one’: see the RV). In place of Mt’s beautiful opening, ’Our Father in the heavens,’ he has simply,... read more

(42) Woe unto you, Pharisees! for ye tithe mint.—See Note on Matthew 23:23. Here, again, we note minor variations—“rue and all manner of herbs,” for St. Matthew’s “anise and cummin;” “judgment and the love of God,” for “the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith”—sufficient to show independence. read more

Christ's Lessons in Prayer Luke 11:1 The disciples had all prayed many times, and yet they came to Jesus with this request. For they were not satisfied with their praying. Their hearts were full of longings for which they could not find utterance, and the silence in which they dwelt oppressed them. For answer, Jesus began by teaching them how not to pray. It may well be, that with such bad examples of devotion in their synagogues and streets, the very habits of devotion which they had formed... read more
