Robertson Word Pictures - Luke 7:24 - 7:24


(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

When the messengers of John were departed (apelthontōn tōn aggelōn Iōanou). Genitive absolute of aorist active participle. Mat 11:7 has the present middle participle poreuomenōn, suggesting that Jesus began his eulogy of John as soon as the messengers (angels, Luke calls them) were on their way. The vivid questions about the people’s interest in John are precisely alike in both Matthew and Luke.
