matthew 21:30 And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not. - Free Bible Online

matthew 21:30 "And he came to the second and said the same thing. But he answered and said, 'I will not'; [yet] he afterward regretted [it] and went.


      30. And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir--"I, sir." The emphatic "I," here, denotes the self-righteous complacency which says, "God, I thank thee that I am not as other men" (Lu 18:11).
      and went not--He did not "afterward repent" and refuse to go; for there was here no intention to go. It is the class that "say and do not" (Mt 23:3) --a falseness more abominable to God, says STIER, than any "I will not."
