Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Matthew 7:1-29
Matthew 7:1-29I believe that it goes without saying that Jesus Christ was certainly the greatest teacher who ever lived and it is interesting to study his teaching habits. And He used the method of declaring a principle, amplifying it and then illustrating it. He declares a truth. It's important that we have certain principles established within our life by which we live. We need to know why we live by these principles and that's understood by having them illustrated for us. And so He follows... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 7:1-29
Matthew 7:1 . Judge not, that ye be not judged. This refers to private and censorious reproaches of others. We must judge nothing before the time. It is better that ten bad men pass for innocent, than one innocent man be unjustly censured. Slander exasperates the injured to judge us again with great wrath, and it exposes us to the judgment and displeasure of God. Matthew 7:6 . Give not that which is holy to the dogs. A proverbial expression, importing that some men cannot be reformed by... read more

Matthew 7:16-20Know them by their fruits. Utility the test of truthThe two criteria on which men most chiefly rest for the guidance “of their religious opinions would here be of no avail; authority would be claimed by the prophet; and private judgment might possibly lead his votaries astray. Both these useful, but require caution. Let us get a clear conception of the notion of utility as a criterion. It is an acknowledged fact that every human action and word is followed inevitably by certain... read more

Matthew 7:28When Jesus had ended these sayings. The Sermon on the MountI. Some few characteristics which the Sermon possesses.1. The wonderful literary beauty of the language cannot have been unobserved by any one.2. Then we have remarked the desultory arrangement and the apparently disconnected progress of ideas.3.

Scofield's Reference Notes - Matthew 7:22
Devils Devils, lit demons. To the reality and personality of demons the N.T. scriptures bear abundant testimony. As to their origin nothing is clearly revealed, but they are not to be confounded with the angels mentioned in 2 Peter 2:4; Jude 1:6. Summary: Demons are spirits Matthew 12:43; Matthew 12:45 are Satan's emissaries ; Matthew 12:26; Matthew 12:27; Matthew 25:41 and so numerous as to make Satan's power practically ubiquitous. Mark 5:9. They are capable of entering and controlling both... read more
