Commentary
Commentary on Matthew 22:7
Theological / DevotionalSent forth. Hebrew narrative style often follows a topical order rather than a strictly chronological one (see p. 274; see on Gen. 25:19; Ex. 16:33 etc.).
Armies. Literally, “bands of soldiers,” rather than large “armies.”
Burned up their city. Doubtless an allusion to the fall of Jerusalem to the legions of Rome in A.D. 70 (see Matt. 24:15; Luke 21:20 p. 77).
