Expositor's Bible Commentary - Matthew 26:1-75

Chapter 19The Great Atonement Day - Matthew 26:1-75 - Matthew 27:1-56WE enter now on the story of the last day of the mortal life of our Lord and Saviour. We have already noticed the large proportionate space given to the Passion Week; but still more remarkable is the concentration of interest on the Passion Day. The record of that single day is very nearly one-ninth of the whole book; and a similar proportion is observed by all the four Evangelists. This proportion of space is very striking... read more

Geneva Study Bible - Matthew 26:6

26:6 {3} Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,(3) By this sudden work of a sinful woman, Christ helps the guests to understand about his death and burial which was near: the gracious result of which will bring life to all sinners who flee unto him. But Judas takes an occasion here to accomplish his wicked purpose and plan. read more

Geneva Study Bible - Matthew 26:7

26:7 {b} There came unto him a woman having an alabaster {c} box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat [at meat].(b) For these things were done before Christ came to Jerusalem: and yet some think that the evangelists have two differing accounts.(c) These boxes were of alabaster, which in ancient times men made hollow to put in ointments: for some write that alabaster keeps ointment without changing it in any way; Pliny, book 13, chap. 1. read more

John Calvin

Geneva Study Bible - Matthew 26:8

26:8 But when his {d} disciples saw [it], they had indignation, saying, To what purpose [is] this {e} waste?(d) This is a figure of speech called synecdoche: for it is said that only Judas was moved at this; John 12:4 .(e) Unprofitable spending. read more

26:10 {4} When Jesus understood [it], he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.(4) We ought not to rashly condemn that which is not orderly done. read more

L.M. Grant

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 26:1-75

Only when His prophetic word, with its every dispensational bearing, is complete does the King, in calm, conscious authority, declare to His disciples that the time has arrived for His being betrayed to be crucified, and on the day of the Passover. The chief priests, scribes and elders assemble together in the high priest's palace, plotting His death, but with other plans than what the Lord has declared. Having no sense of honour, they plot to take Him by subtlety, but not on the pass over... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - Matthew 26:1-75

BETRAYAL AND ARREST As to the first point (Matthew 26:1-5 ), note that Christ predicts His death for the fourth time, adding the manner of it, and the time it would take place. What a calm walking up into death it was! But see how Satan, through the human conspirators, would hinder, if he could, the offering of the sacrifice at the appointed time (Matthew 26:5 )! As to the second point (Matthew 26:6-13 ), we learn from John 12:1-8 , that the woman was Mary, the sister of Lazarus, leading to... read more

Joseph Parker

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Matthew 26:6-13

Chapter 87 Prayer Almighty God, thine is a holy mountain, and the place whereon thou standest is holy ground. May we approach thee in a spirit of humility and great expectation, inspired by the hope which thou thyself hast justified, that if we come to thee in the right way, with the right prayer, thou wilt grant unto us gracious replies. We come by the way of the Cross, we come by the way of Calvary we know no other road; it is strait, and yet it is broad: we renounce ourselves and accept the... read more

"Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, (7) There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat. (8) But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste? (9) For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
