Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Matthew 10:9

(9) Neither gold, nor silver.—“Silver” alone is named in St. Luke; brass—i.e., bronze or copper coinage—in St. Mark. St. Matthew’s report includes all the three forms of the money then in circulation. The tense of the word rendered “provide” requires notice. It implies that if they had money, they might take it, but they were not to “get” or “provide” it as a condition of their journey, still less to delay till they had got it.In your purses.—Literally, in your girdles—the twisted folds of... read more

List of the Apostles Matthew 10:2-4 I. There are several pairs of brothers: Peter and Andrew; James and John; Judas and James. This points to (1) the need of companionship in Christian work, as solace, and as a curb to excessive individualism. (2) The allowableness of special friendships among Christian workers. (3) That Christianity is more beautiful when the natural bonds of love and kindred are sanctified. It is meant to heighten these and they to provide channels for its operation. (4) But... read more

Expositor's Bible Commentary - Matthew 10:1-42

Chapter 9The King’s Ambassadors - Matthew 9:36-38; Matthew 10:1-42I - THE MISSION. {Matthew 9:36-38 - Matthew 10:1-5}So far the King Himself has done all the work of the kingdom. But it has grown upon Him, so that He can no longer do it without assistance; He must therefore provide Himself with deputies. His doing so will be the first step in the organisation of His world-wide kingdom. He reveals, however, no plan laid down to meet all possible emergencies. It is enough to provide for... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Matthew 10:9

10:9 {4} Provide {c} neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,(4) The ministers of the word must cast away all cares that might hinder them, even the least of them.(c) For this journey, namely, both that nothing might hinder them, and also that they might feel some taste of God’s providence: for at their return back, the Lord asked of them whether they lacked anything by the way, Lu 22:35 . read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 10:1-42

When He instructs us to pray, He fully intends to answer such prayer, as we see now in His sending forth His twelve disciples. It is precious to see Him exercising authority to communicate authority to them over evil spirits, sickness and disease; for He is far more than God's servant: He is Lord. In fact, He sends forth the very servants whom He had instructed to pray that He would send labourers into His harvest. The names are given here in groups of two. Simon Peter is called "the first"'... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Matthew 10:1-42

EXPANSION AND OPPOSITION The King has come, the code of His Kingdom is set forth, His credentials presented, and He now expands the testimony concerning Himself, with the result of increasing opposition. This expansion is connected with the commission of the twelve disciples (chap. 10), and the opposition is revealed in various ways in the chapters following. THE DISCIPLES COMMISSIONED (Matthew 10:0 ) Here we find “apostles” for the first time (Matthew 10:2 ), which means “those sent... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Matthew 10:1-42

Chapter 45 Prayer Almighty God, do thou now come to us, and, according to the necessity of our heart, grant thy blessing unto us every one. We are often weary and often are we disquieted by reason of the length and hardness of the road of life; but thou hast provided for us all that we need as we pass from mile to mile of the dreary sand. We look up unto thee with a look that is meant to be a cry, a prayer, an expectation, and we wait upon thee with a patience that is as sacred and dear as a... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Matthew 10:5-23

Chapter 43 Prayer Almighty God, our life is a continual cry unto thee; thine ear is besieged with the prayers of men. We are for ever in want, our experience is a cry to be somewhat more than we already are. This is not discontent, this is the joy of being yet unsatisfied. Thou hast more grace to give, more light to shed, broader and grander revelations thou hast yet to disclose, and we feel the joyous pain of a hunger that is about to eat, and the welcome grateful fire of a thirst that may... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Matthew 10:5-15

"These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not: (6) But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. (7) And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. (8) Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. (9) Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, (10) Nor scrip for your journey, neither two... read more
