Matthew
Matthew 22:12KJV·traditional attribution
And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
John Gill Reformed Baptist
And he saith unto him, friend,.... Either in an ironical way, or because he professed to be a friend of God and Christ: how camest thou in hither, not having a wedding garment? Which way didst thou come in hither?
Albert Barnes Presbyterian
Verse 12. Friend. Rather, companion. The word does not imply friendship. He was speechless. He had no excuse. So it will be with all hypocrites. (t) "was speechless"
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Reformed
Friend, how camest thou in hither, not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless--being self-condemned.
