Gill's Notes on the Bible
When the men were come to him,.... To Jesus; "those two men", as the Arabic version reads; "the disciples", as the Persic version; the same that John sent from the castle of Machaerus, where he was now a prisoner, to Christ, who was teaching in some city or town of Galilee:
they said, John the Baptist; so well known by his being the administrator of the ordinance of baptism:
hath sent us unto thee, saying, art thou he that should come, or look we for another? :-.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See this passage explained in Matthew 11:2-19.
Luke 7:29
The people - The common people.
That heard him - That heard âJohn.â
The publicans - The tax-gatherers, the worst kind of people, who had, however, been converted.
Justified God - Considered God as âjustâ or ârightâ in the counsel which he gave by John - to wit, in calling people to repentance, and in denouncing future wrath on the impenitent. Compare Matthew 11:19.
Being baptized ... - They âshowedâ that they approved of the message of God by submitting to the ordinance which he commanded - the ordinance of baptism. This verse and the following are not to be considered as the words of âLuke,â but the continuation of the discourse of our Lord. He is saying what took place in regard to John. Among the common people he was approved and obeyed among the rich and learned he was despised.
Luke 7:30
But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected ... - It appears from Matthew 3:7 that some of the Pharisees came to John to be baptized; but still this is entirely consistent with the supposition that the great mass of Pharisees and lawyers rejected him.
The counsel of God - The counsel of God toward them was the solemn admonition by John to ârepentâ and be baptized, and be prepared to receive the Messiah. This was the command or revealed will of God in relation to them. When it is said that they ârejectedâ the counsel of God, it does not mean that they could frustrate his purposes, but merely that they violated his commands. Men cannot frustrate the ârealâ purposes of God, but they can contemn his messages, they can violate his commands, and thus they can reject the counsel which he gives them, and treat with contempt the desire which he manifests for their welfare.
Against themselves - To their own hurt or detriment. God is wise and good. He knows what is best for us. He, therefore, that rejects what God commands, rejects it to his own injury. It âcannotâ be well for any mortal to despise what God commands him to do.
Luke 7:31-35
See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 11:16-19. âAnd the Lord said.â This clause is wanting in almost all the manuscripts, and is omitted by the best critics.
