Matthew 21:40 - John Trapp Complete Commentary

Bible Comments

When the lord therefore of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen?

Ver. 40. What will he do, &c.] Nay, what will he not do? God will run upon them, even on their neck, upon the "thick bosses of their bucklers,"Job 15:26. They that would kill their enemy, strike not where he can defend himself. But so doth God, he strikes through all, yea, through the loins, Deuteronomy 33:11, even to the very soul, Jeremiah 4:10. This made Moses cry out, "Who knoweth the power of thine anger?" Psalms 90:11. Surely it is such, as none can either avoid or abide.
