Matthew 14:28; Matthew 14:33And Peter answered Him and said, Lord, if it be Thou, bid me come unto Thee on the water. Impulse and regulationThere are two powers working side by side under which Christ has taught us He means every true Christian life shall move forward, undervaluing neither the one nor the other. One of these is the impelling power, impulse. This impulsive part of religious character is indispensable. St. Peter was right in his outset “Bid me come to Thee,” etc. The other is the... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Matthew 14:14

14 And Jesus went forth, and saw a great multitude, and was moved with compassion toward them, and he healed their sick. Ver. 14. Was moved with compassion, and healed their sick ] Christ’s mercy was not a mouth mercy: such as was that of those in St James’s time, that said to their necessitous neighbours, Depart in peace, be warmed: but with what? with a fire of words. Be filled: but with what? with a mess of words. For they gave them not those things that were needful to the body, James... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Matthew 14:15

15 And when it was evening, his disciples came to him, saying, This is a desert place, and the time is now past; send the multitude away, that they may go into the villages, and buy themselves victuals. Ver. 15. His disciples came to him ] Not the multitudes. They forgat their bodily necessities to attend upon Christ, to hang upon his honey lips, preferring his holy word before their necessary food, as did Job, Job 23:12 . Not only before his dainties and superfluities, but his substantial... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Matthew 14:16

16 But Jesus said unto them, They need not depart; give ye them to eat. Ver. 16. They need not depart ] Whither should they go from the great housekeeper of the world, the all-sufficient God? Habet certe omnia, qui habet habentem omnia. Augustine. Christ hath a cornucopia, a horn of salvation, plenteous redemption, &c. And if he give us a crown, will he deny us a crust? "The earth is the Lord’s, and the fulness thereof." He feeds the ravens, and clothes the lilies. If meat be denied, he... read more

Christ hath said, "Give ye them to eat," to try them only, as St John Joh 6:6 hath it. And upon trial, he found them full of dross, as appears by their answer. But the comfort is, he hath promised to try his people indeed, but not as silver, Isaiah 48:10 ; lest they should not bear any so exact a trial, as... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Matthew 14:18

18 He said, Bring them hither to me. Ver. 18. Bring them hither to me ] Bring we all we have and are to Christ, that he may take off the curse and add the blessing. What the apostle saith of meat and marriage, is true of the rest, "all things are sanctified by the word and prayer," 1 Timothy 4:3 .

And were filled ] So David’s cup overflowed, Psalms 23:5 ; he had not only a sufficience but an affluence. So, at the marriage of Cana, Christ gave them wine enough for 150 guests, John 2:10 . Howbeit he hath not promised us superfluities. Having food and raiment, let us be content, 1 Timothy 6:8 . A little of the creature will serve to carry us through our pilgrimage. And... read more
