Matthew 23:38 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Behold, your house is left unto you desolate. Behold, your house - Ο οικος, the temple: - this is certainly what is meant. It was once the Lord's temple, God's Own house; but now he says, Your temple or house - to intimate that God had abandoned it. See the note on Matthew 23:21; see also on Luke 13:35 (note).
