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

These be those lycanthropi, those wolves mentioned in the... read more

And ye shall be brought before governors ] Yea, they offered themselves to them, crying Christiani sumus, We are Christians, and so tiring them thereby, that one of them a in a great chafe cried out, O miseri, si libet perire, num vobis rupes aut restes desunt? Can ye find no other way to despatch yourselves, but that I must be troubled with you? And before kings,... read more

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

§ 57. CHARGE TO THE APOSTLES, Matthew 10:5-42 . The unity of this discourse demonstrates the oneness of its delivery, a point disputed by Olshausen and others. It consists properly of three parts. The first (Matthew 10:5-15) directs their demeanour during this present trial mission. The second (Matthew 10:16-23) predicts their trials and persecutions through their whole apostolate. The third (Matthew 10:24-42) states the duty of suffering, the struggle to ensue, and the results, namely,... read more

For a testimony against them A memento in the great day of judgment, that the Gospel had been preached unto them, and had been rejected by them. And the Gentiles For our Lord is now contemplating a field of trial far beyond the boundaries of Palestine, to which he had limited their present trial mission.
