Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 24:51

“And shall cut him apart, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. There will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.” Jesus does not draw back from the idea of the severest penalty. He will be ‘cut in two’ (compare 1 Samuel 15:33; Hebrews 11:37). All that he is and has will be destroyed. And he will join the hypocrites. In context this has in mind the Scribes and Pharisees constantly described as hypocrites in chapter 23. But it does, of course, include all hypocrites, that is all who do... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 24:1-40

Matthew 24 f. The Eschatological Discourse, and the Parables of Parousia (Mark 13*, Luke 21:5-Zephaniah : *, Luke 17:23-Haggai :).— Mt. follows Mk. fairly closely, but appends other eschatological sayings and illustrative parables (ch. 25). The discourse arises out of a prediction of the destruction of the Temple, and is spoken in Mt. not to four disciples but to the Twelve, who ask for “ the sign of Thy coming ( i.e. as Messiah, parousia) , and of the end of the world (or age).” Jesus... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 24:42-51

Matthew 24:42 to Matthew 25:13 . Abbreviating Mark 13:33-Haggai :, with its simile of the absent householder, into one verse ( Matthew 24:42; cf. Luke 21:36), Mt. inserts ( a) the short simile of a householder off his guard, ( b) the longer one describing the absent master and the careful and careless stewards (for these cf. Luke 12:39-Galatians :), ( c) the parable of the bridesmaids (Mt. only). At Matthew 25:13 he repeats Mark 13:33, the starting-point of his inserted material. Note... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 24:32-35

Mark hath the very same, Mark 13:28-31. So hath Luke, Luke 21:29-33, only he saith, the fig tree, and all the trees, when they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand. So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand. Verily, &c. By this similitude of the fig tree (called therefore by Luke a parable) our Saviour doth not only design to inform them that these things which he had told them should... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 24:36

Mark addeth, Mark 13:32, neither the Son, but the Father. Of that day and hour, that is, the particular time when the heavens and the earth shall pass away, as he had before said, or when the end of the world shall be, which was one of the questions propounded to him by his disciples, Matthew 24:3. Knoweth no man, no mere man, nor have men any reason to be troubled at it; for it is a piece of knowledge which the Father hath reserved in his own power, and his own pleasure, from the angels, who... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 24:37-39

Luke hath much the same, Luke 17:26,Luke 17:27, where he also saith, it shall be as in the days of Lot; but I shall consider what he saith, which seemeth spoken at another time, and upon another occasion, when I come to his seventeenth chapter. Two things our Saviour seemeth here to teach us: 1. That Christ’s coming to the last judgment will be sudden, and not looked for; upon which account his coming is compared in Scripture to the coming of a thief, Matthew 24:43,Matthew 24:44; 2 Peter 3:10;... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 24:40-41

Some refer this to the coming of Christ in his kingdom of grace; some: to his coming in the day of judgment: it is true of both those comings. God shows the freeness of his grace much in the conversion of sinners, and makes discriminations of which we can give no account, as he tells us, Luke 4:25-27. But it seemeth here rather to be understood of that separation which Christ shall make at the day of judgment, of the sheep from the goats, the elect from the reprobates; for of that coming our... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 24:42-44

Mark saith, Mark 13:33, Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. What our Lord here meaneth by watching is easily gathered, as well by what went before, where our Saviour had been speaking of the security and luxury of the old world, as by what followeth, Matthew 24:44, where he biddeth them be always ready; and therefore Luke 21:34-36, expounds this thus: And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 24:45-46

We have much the same, Luke 12:42-44, whether spake at the same time, and upon the same occasion, or no, I know not. It is said there, Luke 12:41, that Peter gave occasion to this discourse, by saying, Lord, speakest thou this parable unto us, or even to all? Our Saviour replies as here, only Luke saith, Who is that faithful and wise steward? The question intimates that there are but a few such. This discourse plainly refers to the ministers of the gospel, whom Christ leaveth in trust with his... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 24:47-51

Luke hath much of this, Luke 12:45,Luke 12:46; But and if that servant say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; and shall begin to beat the men servants and maidens, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken; the lord of that servant will come in a day when he looketh not for him, and at an hour when he is not aware, and will appoint him his portion with the unbelievers. If that servant prove an evil servant, presumes upon my not making such haste to judgment as he thought I would, and... read more
