Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Hebrews 11:26

_ _ Esteeming — Inasmuch as he esteemed.

_ _ the reproach of Christ — that is, the reproach which falls on the Church, and which Christ regards as His own reproach, He being the Head, and the Church (both of the Old and New Testament) His body. Israel typified Christ; Israel’s sufferings were Christ’s sufferings (compare 2 Corinthians 1:5; Colossians 1:24). As uncircumcision was Egypt’s reproach, so circumcision was the badge of Israel’s expectation of Christ, which Moses especially cherished, and which the Gentiles reproached Israel on account of. Christ’s people’s reproach will ere long be their great glory.

_ _ had respect unto, etc. — Greek,turning his eyes away from other considerations, he fixed them on the (eternal) recompense” (Hebrews 11:39, Hebrews 11:40).

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Hebrews 11:4-31.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Hebrews 11:26

The reproach of Christ — That which he bore for believing in the Messiah to come, and acting accordingly. For he looked off — From all those perishing treasures, and beyond all those temporal hardships Unto the recompence of reward — Not to an inheritance in Canaan; he had no warrant from God to look for this, nor did he ever attain it; but what his believing ancestors looked for, — a future state of happiness in heaven.
