Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Matthew 27:1-66

This time shall we turn in our Bibles to Matthew's gospel chapter twenty-seven? In the twenty-sixth chapter we left Jesus before the high priest, the Sanhedrin, and Peter had just outside of this group denied his Lord. And at this moment he is out somewhere weeping bitterly over his failure.Now when the morning was come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took council against Jesus to put him to death: and when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius... read more

Matthew 27:45There was darkness over all the land.Good Friday and its lessonsA dark shadow belongs to the best of things.I. The first lesson is patience and perseverance. We must be patient with others if they stumble in the darkness, if they do not at once find their way towards the truth.II. The darkness of Good Friday is a likeness of the opposition which each one of us ought to be, and will be, called upon to face, in doing his duty.III.

Matthew 27:46My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me? The forsaken Christthe desertion itself is plain. “Why hast Thou forsaken Me?” Then He felt Himself to be forsaken? The Divine nature could not be separated from the human; He was eternally God. Nor could the Father be separated from the Son in the Divine Godhead, since that in affection and will He was insolubly one. Nor could the Father forsake the Son in any sense that He ceased to love and uphold Him; for at that moment Christ was... read more

Matthew 27:48-49And gave Him to drink. The relenting crucifierNo ill motive could have prompted this relief of thirst.I. The relenting crucifier may have wished to conceal his interest in Christ. It is not uncommon for those who are really convinced upon the subject of religion to use arts to conceal their feelings. Or the man may only have acted a prudent part: He concealed his interest for safety, while he gave Him a proof of his compassion.II. The relenting crucifier may have been A sincere... read more

Matthew 27:50-53Jesus, when He had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the Ghost. Seven wondersThere were seven wonders which made the death of Christ exceedingly remarkable.I. Over His head was written an inscription in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” That there should be a distinct recognition of His kingship over the Jewish people has ever been regarded as one of the most remarkable splendours of the Saviour’s death. Typical of His sovereignty... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Matthew 27:45

45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour. Ver. 45. Darkness over all the land ] The sun hid his head in a mantle of black, as ashamed to behold those base indignities done to the Son of righteousness by the sons of men a This darkness some think was universal; not only over all the land of Judea, but over the whole earth (and so the text, επι πυσαν την γην , may be rendered). Tiberius, say they, was sensible of it at Rome; Dionysius writes to... read more
