Matthew 11:20–27

20 wThen began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works were done, because they repented not: 21 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, xBethsaida! yfor if the mighty works, which were done in you, had been done in zTyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in asackcloth and bashes. 22 cBut I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for zTyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you. 23 And thou, Capernaum, dwhich art exalted unto heaven, eshalt be brought down to hell: yfor if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. 24 cBut I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.

25 fAt that time Jesus ganswered and said, I thank thee, hO Father, Lord of heaven and earth, ibecause thou hast hid these things kfrom the wise and prudent, and hast mrevealed them unto babes. 26 Even so, hFather: for so it seemed good in thy sight. 27 nAll things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, osave the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

Gentle and Lowly

Gentle and Lowly: The Heart of Christ for Sinners and SufferersThis book draws us to Matthew 11, where Jesus describes himself as “gentle and lowly in heart,” longing for his people to find rest in him. The gospel flows from God’s deepest heart for his people, a heart of tender love for the sinful and suffering.
