Matthew 22:24

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - Matthew 22:24

Raise up issue to his brother, to be heirs of his name and of his effects, as we read in Ruth, chap. iv, ver. 10: suscitare nomen defuncti, &c. to raise up the name of the deceased in his inheritance, lest his name be cut off from among his family, and his brethren, and his people.

Matthew Henry

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:23-33

23-33 The doctrines of Christ displeased the infidel Sadducees, as well as the Pharisees and Herodians. He carried the great truths of the resurrection and a future state, further than they had yet been reveled. There is no arguing from the state of things in this world, as to what will take place hereafter. Let truth be set in a clear light, and it appears in full strength. Having thus silenced them, our Lord proceeded to show the truth of the doctrine of the resurrection from the books of... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Matthew 22:1-99

Matthew 22 BUT THE LORD calmly pursued what He had to say to them, so in the opening of this chapter we have the parable of the marriage of the king’s son, which predicts the Gospel day which was about to dawn. There is no question, “What think ye?” about this parable, for it travels beyond men’s thoughts altogether. It is also distinguished from the other two parables by beginning, “The kingdom of heaven is like,” or, more literally, “has become like.” Men come under Heaven’s jurisdiction by... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Matthew 22:23-28

The Question of the Sadducees. v. 23. The same day came to Him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked Him, v. 24. saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother. v. 25. Now there were with us seven brethren; and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue, left his wife unto his brother; v. 26. likewise the second also, and the third, unto the... read more

Lange's Commentary on the Holy Scriptures: Critical, Doctrinal and Homiletical - Matthew 22:23-33

C. The Attack of the Sadducees, and the Victory of the Lord. Matthew 22:23-33(Mark 12:18-27; Luke 20:27-40.)23The same day came to him the20 Sadducees, which [who] say that there is no resur- rection, and asked him, 24Saying, Master, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed unto his brother. 25Now there were with us seven brethren [brothers]: and the first, when he had married a wife, deceased, and, having no issue,21 left his wife unto... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Matthew 22:23-33

the Scriptures Teach the Resurrection Matthew 22:23-33 The Sadducees professed themselves to be bound by the Pentateuch, and to have searched in vain for evidences of a life beyond. They were greatly startled, therefore, when our Lord proved human immortality from the book of Exodus. He had never passed through their schools and sat at the feet of their great teachers, but He showed them that “at the Bush” the voice of God attested eternal life. The great I AM would never have spoken of... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Matthew 22:1-46

The first two parables contained the history of the Hebrew nation up to the slaying of the Son. This one is prophetic. It presents the sin of this people in the light of the day of grace. The King sends His messengers first "to call them that were bidden." "They would not come." A second appeal is made-the mission of the Holy Spirit through the apostles. Of this the people made light. Each went to the material interest of the moment, his farm, his merchandise. The only attention they paid to... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:1-46

The Question Of Jesus’ Authority (21:37-22:46). While, as we have seen above, the section from Matthew 19:3 to Matthew 22:46 forms a complete section in itself, enclosed within a dissertation on true leadership (Matthew 21:18) and a dissertation on false leadership (Matthew 21:23), this sub-section on authority also forms a unit. It commences with a challenge by the leadership concerning His authority (Matthew 21:23-27) and finishes with a challenge by Jesus concerning His authority (Matthew... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:23-33

Jesus Confirms The Truth About The Resurrection And The Secondary Nature of Marriage (22:23-33). Jesus was now faced with the Sadducees. The Sadducees were mainly of the ruling parties and included the Chief Priests, and many of the aristocratic Elders. But here the ones who were sent were probably deliberately chosen from among those who had previously been ‘con-combative’. As with the approach of ‘the disciples of the Pharisees’ it was an attempt to challenge Him at another level. Their... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 22:24

‘Saying, “Teacher, Moses said, If a man die, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed to his brother.” The Sadducees began by briefly outlining the law. Strictly the law said ‘a brother living in the same household’, but as the Book of Ruth demonstrates, it was sometimes applied on a wider basis. Note again the use of ‘Teacher’. They had earlier questioned His authority. Now they were pretending that they recognised His authority. There were no depths to which... read more
