Scripture Reading
Opening Prayer
Introduction/Review
Story about misbehaving child
Exposition
Jesus makes a new address
Rather than Woe, it is “O”
This is a complete change in Jesus emotional state regarding the rejection of the messiah by the Jews.
This is a Lament rather than a condemnation
He makes His desires clear
Jesus would like to have “gathered therm together”
I.
You are responsible for your rebellion against God.
See - Here is what Jesus calls them to recognize based on their rejection of the messiah
“Your house” - The temple
Contrast with “My house” of 21:13 (My house shall be called a house of prayer)
Is empty (Desolate) - Lit. “uninhabited”
Jer 22:5
Essentially, Jesus is mourning over the fact that the temple is just a building because the nation has rejected God
Some suggest that this verse proposes a path to save the temple and God’s people.
Rather, I want to point out to you that this is a quote from Psalm 118.
We won’t take the time to fully explore Psalm 118 but know that this portion of Scripture (chs.
21-23) is essentially a fulfillment of Psalm 118.
Psalm 118 clearly points to Jesus ultimate victory over the “builders” who rejected him as messiah.
It also points to the phrase quoted here as an expression of ultimate victory.
This, combined with the fact that the phrase translated here “until you say” in Matthew always points to the “day of the Lord” clearly instructs us that this is not a way that the Jews could avert what was coming, but that, when Jesus returns, He will then be recognized as the Messiah.
II.
You are responsible to turn from your rebellion to hope in Christ
