Matthew - 17:23 Meaning
“And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again. And they were exceeding sorry.”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
17:22-23 Christ perfectly knew all things that should befall him, yet undertook the work of our redemption, which strongly shows his love. What outward debasement and Divine glory was the life of the Redeemer! And all his humiliation ended in his exaltation. Let us learn to endure the cross, to despise riches and worldly honours, and to be content with his will.
“And when he had brought them into his house, he set meat before them, and rejoiced, believing in God with all his house.”
