Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, neither had they in the ship with them more than one loaf. And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and of the leaven of Herod. And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have no bread. And when Jesus knew it, he saith unto them, Why reason ye,...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him. And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought. And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. After that he put his hands again...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am? It was Christ’s usual way, when he took a walk with his disciples, to beguile the time with holy conversation. It would be well if we always did the same. We might do much good, and we...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets. And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? “That is the main point. It matters little to you what other men say about me;-whether they are right, or wrong, may not concern you; but what is your own opinion? What do you know about me? ‘Whom say ye...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ. “Thou art the Messiah.” We know, from Matthew’s Gospel, that it was this confession of which our Lord said to Peter, “Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona,” son of Jonas:-“for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.”
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And he charged them that they should tell no man of him. He wished, at that time, to remain in comparative retirement; he was not anxious that his miracles should be blazoned abroad. By-and-by, he was to die; and he preferred to derive his fame from his death rather than from his life, and to gather his honours from his cross rather than from his...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them. And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no fuller on earth can white them. And there appeared unto them Elias with Moses: and they were talking with Jesus....

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And Peter answered and said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. For he wist not what to say; for they were sore afraid. Peter had enough wit left to wish to keep where he was; and, sometimes, when we are with our Lord in the mount, we can only say,...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This my beloved Son: hear him. And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves. Moses is gone, and Elias is gone, but Jesus remains; and it is much the same with us now, and we are quite content that...

And there was a cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him. And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves. And although this was not so ravishing or so astonishing a sight, yet it was more encouraging to them, — something...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves. Unhappy, indeed, would they have been if they had looked about and seen none but Moses, for poor comfort could Moses bring. Or if, looking around, they had seen none but Elias, for the stern prophet of fire would have been but a poor...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead. And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean. For they did not understand the Master’s words — not even these apostles...

And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean. You see the great modesty and patience of our Lord. Though these three...

And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead. And they kept that saying with themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean. These were Peter, and James, and John, the three most privileged disciples...
Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And they asked him, saying, Why say the scribes that Elias must first come? And he answered and told them, Elias verily cometh first, and restoreth all things, and how it is written of the Son of man, that he must suffer many things, and be set at naught. But I say unto you, That Elias is indeed come, — John the Baptist was he.

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon
And they have done unto him whatsoever they listed, as it is written of him. It is rather singular that the disciples should begin to ask about the scribes, for this was, as it were, a sort of warning note for a battle into which they were about to plunge. They talked about the scribes, but the scribes were down below in conflict with the rest of...
