luke 12:51 Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division: - Free Bible Online

luke 12:51 "Do you suppose that I came to grant peace on earth? I tell you, no, but rather division;


      51. peace . . . ? Nay, &c.--the reverse of peace, in the first instance. (See on Mt 10:34-36.) The connection of all this with the foregoing warnings about hypocrisy, covetousness, and watchfulness, is deeply solemn: "My conflict hasten apace; Mine over, yours begins; and then, let the servants tread in their Master's steps, uttering their testimony entire and fearless, neither loving nor dreading the world, anticipating awful wrenches of the dearest ties in life, but looking forward, as I do, to the completion of their testimony, when, reaching the haven after the tempest, they shall enter into the joy of their Lord."

JFB.
