Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Matthew 9:36
Until now, Matthew presented the crowds as those Galileans who listened to and observed Jesus with wonder. Now they become the objects of Jesus’ concern.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Matthew 9:37-38
Jesus’ figure of speech in addressing His disciples, however, was an agricultural one. He wanted to infuse His compassion for the multitudes into them. Jesus viewed Israel as a field composed of many stalks of grain. They needed gathering for placement in the barns of the kingdom.

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Matthew 9:34
The reaction of the Pharisees contrasts with that of the crowd in the sharpest possible terms. They attributed Jesus’ power to Satan, not God. They concluded that He came from Satan rather than from God. Instead of being the Messiah He must be a satanic counterfeit. Notice that the Pharisees did not deny the authenticity of Jesus’ miracles.
