Matthew 11
1. John sends his disciples to Jesus.
7. Jesus' testimony concerning John.
16. The perverse judgment of the people concerning the Son.
20. Jesus upbraids Korazin, Bethsaida, and Capernaum;

28. he calls to him those who are weary and burdened.














(27) All things are delivered.--Literally, were delivered, as looking back on the moment of the gift. The "all things," though not limited by the context, are shown by it to refer specially to the mysteries of the kingdom implied in the word "reveal." The wider meaning of the words appears more clearly in Matthew 28:18, and in both passages we may trace a formal denial of the claim of the Tempter resting on the assertion that the power and glory of the world had been committed to him (Luke 4:6).

Neither knoweth any man the Father.--The Greek implies full and complete knowledge, and in that sense it was true that no one knew the Son as such in all the ineffable mystery of His being and His work but the Father; that no one fully entered into the Fatherhood of God but He whose relation to Him had been from eternity one of Sonship. To those only who knew God in Christ was the Fatherhood of which Jews and Gentiles had had partial glimpses revealed in all its completeness.

To whomsoever the Son will reveal him.--The Greek gives more than the mere future--is willing to reveal.

Verse 27 And says that all his work is due to and conditioned by the Father.
