Commentaries

Matthew Henry's Commentary

19:29. The unbelief of man shall not make God's threatenings of no effect. Christ himself, when bearing sins not his own, was not spared. Justice and judgment took hold of our blessed Surety; and will God spare obstinate sinners?

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown

29. Their punishment is sure, fixed, and ready (compare Pr 3:34; 10:13).
