This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Mat 12:43. Ὅταν, κ.τ.λ., when, etc.) Having rebuked and dismissed the interruption of the Pharisees, Jesus pursues those matters which depend upon Mat 12:30; cf. Luk 11:23-24.-ἐξέλθῃ, has gone out) as had been said in Mat 12:29.-διέρχεται, he goeth through) one after another.-ἀνύδρων, without water) Where there is no water, men do not dwell; see Psa 107:35-36.-ἀναπαύσιν, rest) Rest is wished for by every created being. The devils think that man is their proper resting-place.-οὐχ εὑρίσκει, findeth none) sc. except in man. It is miserable always to seek and never to find it.
