This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
66 From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
Ver. 66. Many of his disciples] They stumbled at the word and fell backward. This is reckoned by St Peter a note of a reprobate, 1Pe_2:8. And indeed few sins are more dangerous than that of picking quarrels at God’s word, taking up weapons against it, and snuffing at it, Mal_1:13; replying against it, Rom_9:19-20; casting reproaches upon it, Jer_20:8-9; enviously swelling at it, Act_13:45; gathering odious consequences from it, Rom_3:8 : such are in the ready road to apostasy, and so to perdition, Heb_10:39.
