Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary

39. scribes . well said-enjoying His victory over the Sadducees.

they durst not-neither party, both for the time utterly foiled.

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

20:39-47 The scribes commended the reply Christ made to the Sadducees about the resurrection, but they were silenced by a question concerning the Messiah. Christ, as God, was David's Lord; but Christ, as man, was David's son. The scribes would receive the severest judgement for defrauding the poor widows, and for their abuse of religion, particularly of prayer, which they used as a pretence for carrying on worldly and wicked plans. Dissembled piety is double sin. Then let us beg of God to keep us from pride, ambition, covetousness, and every evil thing; and to teach us to seek that honour which comes from him alone.


Luke 20:38 "Now He is not the God of the dead but of the living; for all live to Him."
Luke 20:40 For they did not have courage to question Him any longer about anything. (NASB ©1995)
