Matthew 9:36 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 9:36

34 But the Pharisees said, ^a“He casts out demons by the ruler of the demons.”

The Compassion of Jesus

35 Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, ^ateaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease¹ among the people.

36 ^aBut when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were¹ weary and scattered, ^blike sheep having no shepherd.

37 Then He said to His disciples, ^a“The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.

38 ^aTherefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.”
