| I say unto you, That none--Our Lord here appears to throw off the veil of the parable, and proclaim the Supper His own, intimating that when transferred and transformed into its final glorious form, and the refusers themselves would give all for another opportunity, He will not allow one of them to taste it. (Note. This parable must not be confounded with that of Pro 1:24-33; The Marriage Supper, Mat 22:2-14). |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
For I say unto you - These may be considered as the words of Jesus, making an application of the parable to the Pharisees before him.
None of those men - This cannot be understood as meaning that no "Jews" would be saved, but that none of those who had "treated him, in that manner" - none who had so decidedly rejected the offer of the gospel - would be saved. We may here see how dangerous it is "once" to reject the gospel; how dangerous to grieve away the Holy Spirit. How often God forsakes forever the sinner who has been once awakened, and who grieves the Holy Spirit. The invitation is full and free; but when it is rejected, and people turn willfully away from it, God leaves them to their chosen way, and they are drowned in destruction and perdition. How important, then, is it to embrace the gospel "at once;" to accept the gracious invitation, and enter without delay the path that conducts to heaven! |

2 The kingdom [932] of heaven [3772] is like [3666] unto a certain [444] king [935], which [3748] made [4160] a marriage [1062] for his [846] son [5207],
3 And [2532] sent forth [649] his [846] servants [1401] to call [2564] them that were bidden [2564] to [1519] the wedding [1062]: and [2532] they would [2309] not [3756] come [2064].
4 Again [3825], he sent forth [649] other [243] servants [1401], saying [3004], Tell [2036] them which are bidden [2564], Behold [2400], I have prepared [2090] my [3450] dinner [712]: my [3450] oxen [5022] and [2532] my fatlings [4619] are killed [2380], and [2532] all things [3956] are ready [2092]: come [1205] unto [1519] the marriage [1062].
5 But [1161] they made light of [272] it, and went their ways [565], one [3303] to [1519] his [2398] farm [68], another [1161] to [1519] his [846] merchandise [1711]:
6 And [1161] the remnant [3062] took [2902] his [846] servants [1401], and entreated them spitefully [5195], and [2532] slew [615] them.
7 But [1161] when the king [935] heard [191] thereof, he was wroth [3710]: and [2532] he sent forth [3992] his [846] armies [4753], and destroyed [622] those [1565] murderers [5406], and [2532] burned up [1714] their [846] city [4172].
8 Then [5119] saith he [3004] to his [846] servants [1401], [3303] The wedding [1062] is [2076] ready [2092], but [1161] they which were bidden [2564] were [2258] not [3756] worthy [514].
9 Go ye [4198] therefore [3767] into [1909] the highways [1327] [3598], and [2532] as many as [3745] [302] ye shall find [2147], bid [2564] to [1519] the marriage [1062].
10 So [2532] those [1565] servants [1401] went out [1831] into [1519] the highways [3598], and gathered together [4863] all [3956] as many as [3745] they found [2147], both [5037] bad [4190] and [2532] good [18]: and [2532] the wedding [1062] was furnished [4130] with guests [345].
11 And [1161] when [1525] the king [935] came in [1525] to see [2300] the guests [345], he saw [1492] there [1563] a man [444] which had [1746] not [3756] on [1746] a wedding [1062] garment [1742]:
12 And [2532] he saith [3004] unto him [846], Friend [2083], how [4459] camest thou [1525] in hither [5602] not [3361] having [2192] a wedding [1062] garment [1742]? And [1161] he was speechless [5392].
13 Then [5119] said [2036] the king [935] to the servants [1249], Bind [1210] him [846] hand [5495] and [2532] foot [4228], and take [142] him [846] away [142], and [2532] cast [1544] him into [1519] outer [1857] darkness [4655]; there [1563] shall be [2071] weeping [2805] and [2532] gnashing [1030] of teeth [3599].
14 For [1063] many [4183] are [1526] called [2822], but [1161] few [3641] are chosen [1588].
24 Because I have called [07121], and ye refused [03985]; I have stretched out [05186] my hand [03027], and no man regarded [07181];
25 But ye have set at nought [06544] all my counsel [06098], and would [014] none of my reproof [08433]:
26 I also will laugh [07832] at your calamity [0343]; I will mock [03932] when your fear [06343] cometh [0935];
27 When your fear [06343] cometh [0935] as desolation [07722] [07584], and your destruction [0343] cometh [0857] as a whirlwind [05492]; when distress [06869] and anguish [06695] cometh [0935] upon you.
28 Then shall they call [07121] upon me, but I will not answer [06030]; they shall seek me early [07836], but they shall not find [04672] me:
29 For that they hated [08130] knowledge [01847], and did not choose [0977] the fear [03374] of the LORD [03068]:
30 They would [014] none of my counsel [06098]: they despised [05006] all my reproof [08433].
31 Therefore shall they eat [0398] of the fruit [06529] of their own way [01870], and be filled [07646] with their own devices [04156].
32 For the turning away [04878] of the simple [06612] shall slay [02026] them, and the prosperity [07962] of fools [03684] shall destroy [06] them.
33 But whoso hearkeneth [08085] unto me shall dwell [07931] safely [0983], and shall be quiet [07599] from fear [06343] of evil [07451].
23 And [2532] the lord [2962] said [2036] unto [4314] the servant [1401], Go out [1831] into [1519] the highways [3598] and [2532] hedges [5418], and [2532] compel [315] them to come in [1525], that [2443] my [3450] house [3624] may be filled [1072].
