Matthew 12:41

The men of Nineveh

Again the rejected King announces judgment (cf) Matthew 11:20-24 Israel, in the midst of the Pharisaic revival of outward religious strictness, was like a man out of whom a demon had "gone," i.e, of his own volition. He would come back and find an empty house, etc. The personal application is to a mere self-cleansed moralist.

Nineveh vs. Jonah 3:5-9; Luke 11:32 (See Scofield "Nahum 1:1") .
