Matthew 13:17 — KJV
Verily. See on ch. 5:18.
Desired to see. That is, to see the Messiah and His kingdom. This was the ardent hope of all the saints of old (see 1 Peter 1:10, 11), who “died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and were persuaded of them” (Heb. 11:13).
