This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
John the Baptist is come (elēluthen). Second perfect active indicative where Mat 11:18 has ēlthen second aorist active indicative. So as to Luk 7:34. Luke alone has “bread” and “wine.” Otherwise these verses like Mat 11:18, Mat 11:19. See note on Mat 11:19 for discussion of details. There are actually critics today who say that Jesus was called the friend of sinners and even of harlots because he loved them and their ways and so deserved the slur cast upon him by his enemies. If men can say that today we need not wonder that the Pharisees and lawyers said it then to justify their own rejection of Jesus.
