1 Christ disputes with the Pharisees touching divorcement:
13 blesses the children that are brought unto him;
17 resolves a rich man how he may inherit life everlasting;
23 tells his disciples of the danger of riches;
28 promises rewards to them that forsake any thing for the gospel;
32 foretells his death and resurrection;
35 bids the two ambitious suitors to think rather of suffering with him;
46 and restores to Bartimaeus his sight.

25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Jer 13:23 Mt 7:3-5 19:24,25 23:24 Lu 18:25

32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him,

they were in. Mt 20:17 *etc: Lu 18:31 *etc:

they were amazed. This probably refers to a sort of indefinable awe which the apostles began to feel for Jesus, which the mighty miracles he wrought, and the air of majesty and authority he now assumed, were calculated to inspire.

Zec 3:8 Lu 9:51 Joh 11:8,16

And he. 4:34 Mt 11:25 13:11 Lu 10:23

33 Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:

35 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.

James. Matthew says that this request was made by Salome their mother; but though she made the request as from herself, yet it is evident that they had set her upon the business; and therefore Jesus, knowing whence it came, immediately addressed the sons.

1:19,20 5:37 9:2 14:33

come. Mt 20:20 *etc:

we would. 2Sa 14:4-11 1Ki 2:16,20

Ye know not. 1Ki 2:22 Jer 45:5 Mt 20:21,22 Ro 8:26 Jas 4:3

39 And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:

We. 14:31 Joh 13:37

Ye. 14:36 Mt 10:25 Joh 15:20 17:14 Ac 12:2 Col 1:24 Re 1:9

40 But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.

41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with James and John.

they. 9:33-36 Pr 13:10 Mt 20:24 Lu 22:24 Ro 12:10 Php 2:3 Jas 4:5

42 But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.

Ye know. Mt 20:25 Lu 22:25 1Pe 5:3

are accounted. or, think good.

43 But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister:

so. Joh 18:36 Ro 12:2

whosoever. 9:35 Mt 20:26,27 23:8-12 Lu 9:48 14:11 18:14 Joh 13:13-18 1Co 9:19-23 Ga 5:13 1Pe 5:5,6

44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.

45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

came. Mt 20:28 Lu 22:26,27 Joh 13:14 Php 2:5-8 Heb 5:8

46 And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.

they came. Mt 20:29 *etc: Lu 18:35 *etc:

as he went. Luke says that this took place 'as he was come nigh unto Jericho,' and afterwards records an event which took place in that city. But the words [en to engizo autou eis lericho,] may be rendered, 'When he was nigh Jericho,' which is equally true of him who is gone a little way from it, as of him who is come near it; and as it is probable that Jesus stayed some days in the neighbourhood, this might occur as he went out of the city during that time, and he might afterwards re-enter it.

begging. Lu 16:20,22 Joh 9:8 Ac 3:2,3

47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
