Sermon Bible Commentary - Matthew 26:24-25

Matthew 26:24-25 Judas rebuked by Christ. I. It will give increased interest to the sayings of our Lord in the text if we suppose that they were uttered with a special reference to Judas, with the merciful design of warning him of the enormity of his projected crime, and thus, if it were yet possible, of withholding him from its commission. The Son of Man was about to go as it was written of Him nothing was about to happen to Him which had not been distinctly prearranged. The part which Judas... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Matthew 26:25

Matthew 26:22 , Matthew 26:25 (with John 13:25 ) I. In the first form of the question: "Is it I?" we have an example of that wholesome self-distrust, which a glimpse into the possibilities of evil that lie slumbering in all our hearts ought to teach every one of us. Every man is a mystery to himself. In every soul there lie, coiled and dormant, hybernating snakes evils that a very slight rise in the temperature will wake up into poisonous activity. And let no man say, in foolish... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Matthew 26:26-28

Matthew 26:26-28 Notice: I. When the Lord's Supper was first kept, and who kept it. As He was eating, Jesus took bread. He was eating unleavened bread and drinking wine at the Feast of the Passover in the city of Jerusalem. The Last Supper was first eaten at the Passover Supper of the Jews. It was first eaten by Jesus and His Twelve Apostles the night He was betrayed. II. What did these words mean to those who first heard them? The Apostles did not know what they meant. Jesus was with them at... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Matthew 26:27-28

Matthew 26:27-28 I. The Cup to us speaks of a Divine treaty or covenant. Ancient Israel had lived for nearly two thousand years under the charter of their national existence, which, as we read in the old Testament, was given on Sinai amidst thunderings and lightnings; and that covenant, or agreement, or treaty, on the part of God, was ratified by a solemn act, in which the blood of the sacrifice, divided into two portions, was sprinkled: one half upon the altar, and the other half, after their... read more

Sermon Bible Commentary - Matthew 26:30

Matthew 26:30 There are many truths which present themselves to the mind, when it duly ponders the simple statement of the text. I. The first of these truths is that our blessed Lord, by conforming to certain customs of the Jews in the eating of the Passover, gave His sanction to ceremonies which may not be able to plead a Divine institution. It was not only in the singing of psalms, but in many other particulars, such as the recumbent posture, and the drinking of wine, that the Jews had... read more

Charles Simeon's Horae Homileticae - Matthew 26:24

DISCOURSE: 1400THE FEARFUL PROSPECT OF THE IMPENITENTMatthew 26:24. It had been good for that man if he had not been born.“KNOWN unto God are all his works, from the foundation of the world.” But the fore-ordination of God does not in any degree affect the responsibility of man. Man is altogether a free agent, in everything that he does, whether it be good or evil. The Spirit of God may move him; or Satan may tempt him: but he does nothing without the concurrence of his own will. Hence, when... read more

I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.THE great object for commemoration, under the Jewish dispensation, was, the redemption of that people out of Egypt: and that which ought to occupy our minds is, the infinitely greater redemption which has been vouchsafed to us, from all the miseries of death and hell, through the mediation of our Lord and Saviour... read more

sat down with the twelve The order of events on the night of the Passover supper appears to have been: (1) The taking by our Lord and the disciples of their places at the table; (2) the contention who should be greatest; (3) the feet washing; (4) the identification Judas as the traitor; (5) the withdrawal of Judas; (6) the institution of the supper; (7) the words of Jesus while still in the room Matthew 26:26-29; Luke 22:35-38; John 13:3-35; Matthew 14:1-31 (8) the words of Jesus between the... read more

Scofield's Reference Notes - Matthew 26:28

remission Forgiveness. Summary: The Greek word translated "remission" in Matthew 26:28; Acts 10:43; Hebrews 9:22 is elsewhere rendered "forgiveness." It means, to send off, or away. And this, throughout Scripture, is the one fundamental meaning of forgiveness--to separate the sin from the sinner. Distinction must be made between divine and human forgiveness: (1) Human forgiveness means the remission of penalty. In the Old Testament and the New, in type and fulfilment, the divine forgiveness... read more
