Verse 1

With the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ begins the "dispensation of the grace of God" (Ephesians 3:2), which is defined as "his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus"; and, "the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:7-9).

Under grace God freely gives to the believing sinner eternal life (Romans 6:23); accounts to him a perfect righteousness (Romans 3:21, 22; 4:4, 5); and accords to him a perfect position (Ephesians 1:6). The predicted results of this sixth testing of man are.

(1) The salvation of all who believe (Acts 16.31);

(2) judgment upon an unbelieving world and an apostate church (Matthew 25:31-46; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10; 1 Peter 4:17, 18; Revelation 3:15, 16).

(1) Man's state at the beginning of the dispensation of grace (Romans 3:19; Galatians 3:22; Ephesians 2:11, 12).

(2) Man's responsibility under grace (John 1:11, 12; John 3:36; John 6:28, 29).

(3) His predicted failure (Matthew 24:37-39; Luke 18:8; 19:12-14).

(4) The judgment (2 Thessalonians 2:7-12).

Verse 34

Matthew 21:30

A discrepancy has been imagined between this account and those in Mark 10:46; Luke 18:35. Matthew and Mark obviously refer to a work of healing as Jesus departed from Jericho. Bartimseus, the active one of the two, the one who cried, "Jesus, thou Son of David," is specifically mentioned by Mark. Of the other one of the "two," we know nothing. The healing described by Luke (Luke 18:35) occurred before Jesus entered Jericho. As to the form of appeal, "Son of David" (Cf. Matt. 9:27; Matt. 15:22; Matt. 21:9), Jesus must have been so addressed constantly. The narratives therefore supplement, but in no wise contradict each other.
