马太福音 10:39

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Matthew 10:1-42

As a result of this, the King calls, equips, and sends forth His disciples. No work can be done to extend His Kingdom that is not the direct outcome of His compassion. To men in communion with that compassion He first says, "Pray," and then, "Go." This is the perpetual order of the messengers and missionaries of His Kingdom-Compassion, Prayer, Service. These men are to proclaim the Kingdom, and to accompany the proclamation with signs. The measure of their service is to be the measure of... read more

Wells of Living Water Commentary - Matthew 10:24-42

The Disciple and His Lord Matthew 10:24-42 INTRODUCTORY WORDS We thought it well to present seven names by which the children of God are known in the New Testament. 1. The first name we shall mention is "disciple." That is the word used in the first verse of our Scripture lesson. The word really means "learner." We are familiar with Mary and her sister Martha. Mary had this distinction that she sat at Jesus' feet and heard His Word. Martha, to the contrary, was cumbered about many things.... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 10:1-42

Jesus Appoints and Sends Out The Twelve To Proclaim The Kingly Rule of Heaven With Admonitions, Warnings And Final Promises (9:35-11:1). In this section Jesus appoints and sends out His twelve Apostles. His purpose for them is that they might proclaim the Kingly Rule of Heaven, and reveal its presence on earth by the signs and miracles that will result as they evangelise (Matthew 10:1; Matthew 10:7-8). But He is full aware that their message will only be accepted by the minority as He has made... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 10:34-42

What Will Result From His Coming, And What He Requires Of Those Who Would Follow Him (10:34-42). As Jesus comes to the end of His instructions He wants His disciples to be aware of the waves that they are going to cause. He wants them to know that what He has come to bring will not result in peace but a sword. Rather than expecting perfect harmony to follow, they must expect a world divided in two as though with a sword-stroke (into those who walk in the broad way, and those who walk in the... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 10:37-39

“He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, And he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he who does not take his cross and follow after me, is not worthy of me. He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it.” It is at this point that a disciple has to choose what he will do. If he would be ‘worthy’ of Christ (deserving of His interest and saving concern) then he must put his love for Christ before his love... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 10:5-42

Matthew 10:5-Luke : . The Charge to the Twelve.— The section forms the second of five passages into which Mt. col lected the sayings of Jesus. The Markan account ( Matthew 6:7-1 Kings :) is followed by Luke 9:1-Deuteronomy :, but Luke 10:2-Joshua : (the Seventy) is from Q; Matthew 10:5-Nehemiah : combines the two sources. The mission is limited to Jews, hardly, in view of Matthew 10:6, Matthew 10:23, to the Jews of Galilee. Luke 10 omits the limitation; he wrote mainly for Gentiles. Indeed,... read more

Matthew 10:24-Malachi : . Further Sayings on Persecution. Matthew 10:24-Lamentations : a would hardly be intelligible to the disciples till after Matthew 16:21; Matthew 10:25 b connects with Matthew 12:22-Jonah :.— Beelzebub: Mark 3:22 *. Matthew 10:26-Micah : . From Q ( cf. Luke 12:2-1 Samuel :): Matthew 10:26 is found in Mark 4:22, though the application is different both there and also in Luke 12:2. Here and in Matthew 10:27 the thought is that Jesus’ influence in His lifetime is... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 10:37-39

Matthew 10:37-Malachi : . Conditions of Discipleship.— Luke 14:25-Daniel :— to the crowds; Mark 8:34— to crowd and disciples; Mt. to disciples. The highest good must be clung to at all costs, though cases of its conflict with the fifth commandment are happily comparatively rare ( Matthew 15:4-Joshua : *). If we keep Matthew 10:38 before Matthew 16:21, there is here no prediction of Jesus’ death, but a general and only too well understood reference to agony and shame. Matthew 10:39 is found,... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 10:39

John 12:25, giveth us a commentary upon these words thus, He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. He in this text is said to find his life, who thinks that he hath found, that is, saved it, who is so much in love with his life that, rather than he will lose it, he will lose God’s favour, deny the Lord that brought him, deny the most fundamental truths of the gospel. The man that doth thus (saith Christ) shall lose it;... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Matthew 10:34-42

CRITICAL NOTESMatthew 10:38. Taketh not his cross.—By the Roman custom criminals were compelled to bear the cross to the place of execution. The Galilæans would know too well what was meant by “taking the cross.” Many hundreds had paid that forfeiture for rebellion that had not prospered, under Judas the Gaulonite and others (Carr).Matthew 10:39. He that findeth his life.—The word is the same as that translated “soul” (i.e. that by which man lives in the lower or the higher sense of life) in... read more
