📖🕯 Holy Bible - Matthew 26 with Matthew Henry Commentary at the end.

2 years ago

📖 This chapter is about: The rulers conspire against Christ, Christ anointed at Bethany, Judas bargains to betray Christ, The Passover, Christ institutes his holy supper, He warns his disciples, His agony in the garden, He is betrayed, Christ before Caiaphas, Peter denies him.

🕯 How does this apply today?:"The greater profession men make of religion, the greater opportunity they have of doing mischief, if their hearts be not right with God." ~ Matthew Henry

📖 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.
