SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:32

Los hombres de Nínive se levantar�n en el juicio contra esta generaci�n, y la condenar�n; porque a la predicaci�n de Jon�s se arrepintieron; y he aquí m�s que Jon�s en este lugar.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 32. The men of Nineveh shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it , etc.] Luke changes the order of these instances; Matthew mentions this before the instance of the queen of Sheba; but Luke puts it last: this circumstance is not material, and the design of it is the same with the former: for they repented at the preaching of Jonas, and behold a greater than Jonas is here : what in this case will aggravate the condemnation of the Jews in the day of judgment is, that these men were Heathens, aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, and were not used to have prophets sent to them; and yet as soon as Jonas, a mere man, came to them, and preached but one sermon among them, they repented of their sins, and turned from them; whereas the Jews, who had a better notion of religion, and who, though they had the Son of God himself among them, and preached to them, and that many sermons, and whose ministry was confirmed by miracles, and afterwards his apostles for a course of years, had yet remained impenitent and unbelieving; (see Gill on � Matthew 12:41�).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 29-36 - Christ promised that there should be one sign more given, even the sig of Jonah the prophet; which in Matthew is explained, as meaning the resurrection of Christ; and he warned them to improve this sign. But though Christ himself were the constant preacher in any congregation and worked miracles daily among them, yet unless his grace humble their hearts, they would not profit by his word. Let us not desire mor evidence and fuller teaching than the Lord is pleased to afford us. We should pray without ceasing that our hearts and understandings may be opened, that we may profit by the light we enjoy. And especially tak heed that the light which is in us be not darkness; for if our leadin principles be wrong, our judgment and practice must become more so.

Vincent's NT Word Studies

32. Shall rise up (anasthsontai). This verb is also used of rising from the dead, and that is implied here; but the meaning is, shall appear as witness. Hence Rev., stand up. See on Matt. xii. 41.

Preaching (khrugma). The proclamation. See on 2 Pet. ii. 5.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

11:32 {At the preaching of Jonah} (eis to kerugma iwna). Note this use of eis as in #Mt 10:41; 12:41. Luke inserts the words about the Queen of the South (#31) in between the discussion of Jonah (verses #29f., 32). Both solomwnos (#31) and iwna (verse #32) are in the ablative case after the comparative pleion (more, {something more}).
