VERSE (32) - Pr 17:16 Isa 28:9-13; 29:11,12 Jer 5:3-5

SEV Biblia, Chapter 7:32

Semejantes son a los muchachos sentados en la plaza, y que dan voces los unos a los otros, y dicen: Os taimos con flautas, y no bailasteis; os endechamos, y no llorasteis.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 7:32

Verse 32. They are like unto children] See on Matt. xi. 16-19. It is probable that our Lord alludes here to some play or game among the Jewish children, no account of which is now on record.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 32. They are like to children , etc.] The Pharisees and lawyers, who rejected the counsel of God, and the baptism of John, were like to children; not for innocence, simplicity, meekness, and humility; their characters were the reverse; but rather, for their ignorance, and want of understanding, their folly and weakness; nor are they here compared to the children that piped and mourned, but to those surly and ill natured ones, who made no answer to those that did. They, together with Christ, and John the Baptist, are in general likened to children, sitting in the market place ; where children were wont to be, there being a variety of persons and things to be seen; and which may design the temple, or the synagogues, or any place of concourse, where the Pharisees met, with John, Christ, and their disciples: and calling one to another, and saying ; they that were good natured, and more disposed to mirth and innocent diversions: we have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept : they imitated the pipers at weddings, expecting their companions would have danced, as was usually done by the others, when the pipe was played upon; and they mimicked the mourning women at funerals, expecting their fellows would have made as though they had wept; whereas they would do neither, showing a dislike both to the one and to the other. The children that imitated the pipers, represent Christ and his disciples, who delivered the joyful sound of the Gospel; and the children that acted the part of the mourners, signify John the Baptist, and his disciples, who preached the doctrine of repentance; and the children that would not join with, nor make any answer to the one, or the other, intend the Scribes and Pharisees, who were not pleased with either of them, as the following words show; (See Gill on Matthew 11:16). (See Gill on Matthew 11:17).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 19-35 - To his miracles in the kingdom of nature, Christ adds this in the kingdom of grace, To the poor the gospel is preached. It clearl pointed out the spiritual nature of Christ's kingdom, that the messenger he sent before him to prepare his way, did it by preachin repentance and reformation of heart and life. We have here the jus blame of those who were not wrought upon by the ministry of Joh Baptist or of Jesus Christ himself. They made a jest of the methods God took to do them good. This is the ruin of multitudes; they are no serious in the concerns of their souls. Let us study to prove ourselve children of Wisdom, by attending the instructions of God's word, an adoring those mysteries and glad tidings which infidels and Pharisee deride and blaspheme.
