📖🕯 Holy Bible - Matthew 21 with Matthew Henry Commentary at the end.

📖 This chapter is about: Christ enters Jerusalem, He drives out those who profaned the temple, The barren fig-tree cursed, Jesus' discourse in the temple, The parable of the two sons, The parable of the wicked husbandmen.

🕯 How does this apply today?: "We must not think the clothes on our backs too dear to part with for the service of Christ." ~ Matthew Henry

"So if you faithfully obey the commands I am giving you today—to love the Lord your God and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul—" ~ Deuteronomy 11:13 (NIV)

📖 About the book: Matthew, surnamed Levi, before his conversion was a publican, or tax-gatherer under the Romans at Capernaum. He is generally allowed to have written his Gospel before any other of the evangelists. The contents of this Gospel, and the evidence of ancient writers, show that it was written primarily for the use of the Jewish nation. The fulfilment of prophecy was regarded by the Jews as strong evidence, therefore this is especially dwelt upon by Matthew. Here are particularly selected such parts of our Saviour's history and discourses as were best suited to awaken the Jewish nation to a sense of their sins; to remove their erroneous expectations of an earthly kingdom; to abate their pride and self-conceit; to teach them the spiritual nature and extent of the gospel; and to prepare them for the admission of the Gentiles into the church.
