Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 10:5-42

Matthew 10:5-Luke : . The Charge to the Twelve.— The section forms the second of five passages into which Mt. col lected the sayings of Jesus. The Markan account ( Matthew 6:7-1 Kings :) is followed by Luke 9:1-Deuteronomy :, but Luke 10:2-Joshua : (the Seventy) is from Q; Matthew 10:5-Nehemiah : combines the two sources. The mission is limited to Jews, hardly, in view of Matthew 10:6, Matthew 10:23, to the Jews of Galilee. Luke 10 omits the limitation; he wrote mainly for Gentiles. Indeed,... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 10:9-10

Our Saviour having in the last verse commanded them to give freely, they might reasonably be thinking that they had need to provide well for their journey. No, saith our Saviour, Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass, & c. That this was but a temporary precept, the will of God concerning them for this short journey, appeareth from Luke 22:35,Luke 22:36, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip, & c. They were to finish this journey in a short time,... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Matthew 10:1-15

CRITICAL NOTESMatthew 10:1. Called.—We must distinguish three calls, the first to be disciples; the second to serve as Evangelists; and now the third to the Apostolic office. This call to the Apostolate, however, was only preliminary, and limited by the present circumstances and position of the church. The Apostolic office obtained its full proportions after the ascension of our Lord, when the knowledge of the disciples and their testimony was completed, and the Holy Spirit poured out on the... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Matthew 10:1-20

Matthew 10:1-20 Jesus giving His Power to His Followers. Note: I. The work Christ's followers were to do. They were to do the mysterious work which the Master had done, and to preach as both He and John had preached. They were sent forth to do and to serve, but were done by and served as they went. Having been entrusted with the responsibility of a great message, and furnished with a power which was the envy and amazement of all, there ought to be an elevation of their consciousness into some... read more

Scofield's Reference Notes - Matthew 10:9

Provide neither gold (Cf) Mark 6:8; Mark 6:9; Luke 9:3. The central thought here, urgency, must be kept in mind. The emphasis is upon "provide." Time is not to be taken to search for additional staves or shoes. The disciples were to go in their ordinary sandals, with such staff as they might have, or with none. Cf. Paul, Romans 1:15. read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Matthew 10:1-42

Shall we turn now in our bibles to the tenth chapter of the gospel of Matthew?In the beginning of the tenth chapter we find Christ sending His disciples out, telling them to go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. But in the fact that He is sending them to go, in the first part of chapter ten, makes the last verse of chapter nine quite significant. For in the last verse of chapter nine, Jesus said to His disciples: "Pray ye therefore the Lord of harvest, that he will send forth labourers... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 10:1-42

Matthew 10:1 . He called to him his twelve disciples. Jesus chose twelve that they might sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. Luke 22:30. And that they might be the twelve foundations and gates of his church. Revelation 21:12-14. But this preference to the twelve did not hinder the extraordinary powers of the Spirit from being conferred on other apostolic men. And who would have thought, when they left their nets, that they should fill eternal thrones? Believer, take... read more

The Biblical Illustrator - Matthew 10:9

Matthew 10:9Provide neither gold. The enthusiasm of povertyIt is impossible not to admire the noble enthusiasm of poverty which showed itself in the literal adoption of such rules by the followers of Francis of Assisi, and, to some extent, by those of Wiclif; but the history of the Mendicant Orders, and other like fraternities, forms part of that teaching of history which has led men to feel that in the long-run the beggar’s life will bring the beggar’s vices. Yet here, as in the case of the... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Matthew 10:9

9 Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, Ver. 9. Provide neither gold, &c. ] To wit, for this present voyage (for at other times our Saviour had money, and he put it not in a penny pouch, but in a bag so big that it needed a bearer), but now Christ would teach them, by experience of his fatherly providence in feeding and securing them, to trust him for ever. read more
