Mark 12:37 David therefore himself calls him Lord; and from where is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly. Luther when preaching to a mixed assembly, said: "I perceive in the church Dr. Justus Jonas and Melancthon, and other learned doctors, Now, if I preach to their edification, what is to become of the rest? Therefore, by their leave, I shall forget that Dr. Jonas is here at all, and preach to the multitude." So must I do at this good hour, asking those of you who are advanced in the Divine life to unite your prayers with mine, that the word of the gospel may be blessed to the unconverted. (C. H. Spurgeon.) Parallel Verses KJV: David therefore himself calleth him Lord; and whence is he then his son? And the common people heard him gladly. |
