Jesus Gives True Rest

25 aAt that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that bYou have hidden these things from the wise and prudent cand have revealed them to babes.  
26 Even so, Father, for so it seemed good in Your sight.
27 aAll things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. bNor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.  
28 Come to aMe, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  
29 Take My yoke upon you aand learn from Me, for I am gentle and blowly in heart, cand you will find rest for your souls.

Matthew 11:26

Even so, Father - . An emphatical ratification of the preceding address.

It was right that the heavenly wisdom, despised, rejected, and persecuted by the scribes and Pharisees, should be offered to the simple people, and afterwards to the foolish people, the Gentiles, who are the children of wisdom, and justify God in his ways, by bringing forth that fruit of the Gospel of which the Pharisees refused to receive even the seed.
