Chapter Eleven:
Encouragement for John and Reproach for cities
[“Impossible to please”]
Matthew 11:1 – Twelve Sent out to Teach
MT11:1 And it occurred when Jesus finished giving instructions to the twelve disciples, he crossed from there teaching and preaching in their towns.[1]
*
[1] Preaching in their towns: Jesus was a teacher who practiced what he preached. He has just spoken at length to his “apostles” and given them precise instructions. Now he does not sit back and let them do the work while he relaxes. But he immediately sets the example (Revelation 14:4).
