Matthew 18:10
_ _ Matthew 18:10-35. Further teaching on the same subject, including the parable of the unmerciful debtor.
_ _ Take heed that ye despise — stumble.
_ _ not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven — A difficult verse; but perhaps the following may be more than an illustration: — Among men, those who nurse and rear the royal children, however humble in themselves, are allowed free entrance with their charge, and a degree of familiarity which even the highest state ministers dare not assume. Probably our Lord means that, in virtue of their charge over His disciples (Hebrews 1:13; John 1:51), the angels have errands to the throne, a welcome there, and a dear familiarity in dealing with “His Father which is in heaven,” which on their own matters they could not assume. |
Matthew 18:10
See that ye despise not one of these little ones — As if they were beneath your notice. Be careful to receive and not to offend, the very weakest believer in Christ: for as inconsiderable as some of these may appear to thee, the very angels of God have a peculiar charge over them: even those of the highest order, who continually appear at the throne of the Most High. To behold the face of God seems to signify the waiting near his throne; and to be an allusion to the office of chief ministers in earthly courts, who daily converse with their princes. |
Matthew 18:10
(4) Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
(4) The weaker that a man is, the greater care we ought to have for his salvation, as God teaches us by his own example. |
