Matthew 11:10
Matthew 11:10 is the tenth verse in the eleventh chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament.
In the original Greek according to Westcott-Hort for this verse is:
In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads:
The New International Version translates the passage as:
The words here are from Malachi 3:1, "Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me." The Greek word ἄγγελόν is angel, which can also be translated as messenger. Lapide notes that some people actually believed that John was an angel. The phrase, "who shall prepare your way," MacEvilly notes is allusive to the custom of preparing ways, by removing obstacles for the coming of a king into some part of their dominion. John, is said, by his preaching and baptism, to have "removed every obstacle to the proper reception of Christ; by his austere and heavenly life."
Gregory the Great: "For the Greek word Angel, is in Latin Nuntius, ‘a messenger.’ He therefore who came to bear a heavenly message is rightly called an Angel, that he may preserve in his title the dignity which he performs in his office."
Chrysostom: " He shows wherein it is that John is greater than the Prophets, namely, in that he is nigh unto Christ, as he says, I send before thy face, that is, near Thee, as those that walk next to the king's chariot are more illustrious than others, so likewise is John because of his nearness to Christ."
Pseudo-Chrysostom: " Also the other Prophets were sent to announce Christ's coming, but John to prepare His way, as it follows, who shall make ready thy way before thee;"
