Matthew 11:2 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 11:2

John the Baptist Sends Messengers to Jesus

1 Now it came to pass, when Jesus finished commanding His twelve disciples, that He departed from there to ^ateach and to preach in their cities.

2 ^aAnd when John had heard ^bin prison about the works of Christ, he¹ sent two of his disciples

3 and said to Him, “Are You ^athe Coming One, or do we look for another?”

4 Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things which you hear and see:

5 ^aThe blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and ^bthe poor have the gospel preached to them.

6 And blessed is he who is not ^aoffended because of Me.”

7 ^aAs they departed, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? ^bA reed shaken by the wind?
