Luke 20:41 - Forerunner Commentary

Luke 20:41

Compare all

39 Then some of the scribes answered and said, “Teacher, You have spoken well.”

40 But after that they dared not question Him anymore.

Jesus: How Can David Call His Descendant Lord?

41 And He said to them, ^a“How can they say that the Christ is the Son of David?

42 Now David himself said in the Book of Psalms:
^a‘The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at My right hand,

43 Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” ’

44 Therefore David calls Him ‘Lord’; ^ahow is He then his Son?”

Beware of the Scribes

45 ^aThen, in the hearing of all the people, He said to His disciples,

46 ^a“Beware of the scribes, who desire to go around in long robes, ^blove greetings in the marketplaces, the best seats in the synagogues, and the best places at feasts,

47 ^awho devour widows’ houses, and for a ^bpretense make long prayers. These will receive greater condemnation.”
