This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Covered up (sugkekalummenon estin). Periphrastic perfect passive indicative of sugkaluptō, an old verb, but here only in the N.T., to cover up on all sides and so completely. Luk 12:2here are parallel with Mat 10:26-33 spoken to the Twelve on their tour of Galilee, illustrating again how often Jesus repeated his sayings unless we prefer to say that he never did so and that the Gospels have hopelessly jumbled them as to time and place. See the passage in Matthew for discussion of details.
