Matthew 11:19 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 11:19

17 and saying:
‘We played the flute for you,
And you did not¹ dance;
We mourned to you,
And you did not lament.’

18 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’

19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look, a glutton and a¹ winebibber, ^aa friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ ^bBut wisdom is justified by her² children.”

Woe to the Impenitent Cities

20 ^aThen He began to rebuke the cities in which most of His mighty works had been done, because they did not repent:

21 “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works which were done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago ^ain sackcloth and ashes.
