Matthew 3:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 3:7

5 ^aThen Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him

6 ^aand were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said to them, ^a“Brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from ^bthe wrath to come?

8 Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance,

9 and do not think to say to yourselves, ^a‘We have Abraham as our father.’ For I say to you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

10 And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees. ^aTherefore every tree which does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
