Commentary on Matthew 22:41

Theological / Devotional

Pharisees were gathered. [Jesus Silences His Critics, Matt. 22:41-46=Mark 12:35-37=Luke 20:41-44. Major comment: Matthew.] By this time, it would appear, a large delegation of priests had gathered to listen to what Jesus might say (see on chs. 21:23, 28, 33; 22:1, 15, 23, 34, 41). Mark notes that Jesus was still teaching in the Temple (ch. 12:35).

Jesus asked them. All three attempts (see on vs. 15, 23, 34) to make Jesus incriminate Himself had failed. Now Jesus turns the tables on His would-be accusers.
