Matthew 13:12
_ _ For whosoever hath — that is, keeps; as a thing which he values.
_ _ to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance — He will be rewarded by an increase of what he so much prizes.
_ _ but whosoever hath not — who lets this go or lie unused, as a thing on which he sets no value.
_ _ from him shall be taken away even that he hath — or as it is in Luke (Luke 8:18), “what he seemeth to have,” or, thinketh he hath. This is a principle of immense importance, and, like other weighty sayings, appears to have been uttered by our Lord on more than one occasion, and in different connections. (See on Matthew 25:9). As a great ethical principle, we see it in operation everywhere, under the general law of habit; in virtue of which moral principles become stronger by exercise, while by disuse, or the exercise of their contraries, they wax weaker, and at length expire. The same principle reigns in the intellectual world, and even in the animal — if not in the vegetable also — as the facts of physiology sufficiently prove. Here, however, it is viewed as a divine ordination, as a judicial retribution in continual operation under the divine administration. |
Matthew 13:12
Whosoever hath — That is, improves what he hath, uses the grace given according to the design of the giver; to him shall be given — More and more, in proportion to that improvement. But whosoever hath not — Improves it not, from him shall be taken even what he hath — Here is the grand rule of God's dealing with the children of men: a rule fixed as the pillars of heaven. This is the key to all his providential dispensations; as will appear to men and angels in that day. Matthew 25:29; Mark 4:25; Luke 8:18; Luke 19:26. |
