This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Mat 22:14.[959] Πολλοὶ γάρ, κ.τ.λ., for many, etc.) Our Lord adds this remark in His own person to the conclusion of the king’s speech. Cf ὅτι, κ.τ.λ., for, etc., in Luk 16:8.-γὰρ, κ.τ.λ., for, etc.) This general sentiment is a proof, that this man without a wedding garment, and all who are like him, will be cast forth.

[959] ἐκεῖ ἔσται-πολλοὶ γὰρ εἰσι κλητοὶ) Two expressions somewhat frequently repeated by the Saviour, and therefore most worthy of consideration.-Harm., p. 463, 464.
