On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Note, The day is coming, when hypocrites will be called to an account for all their presumptuous intrusion into gospel ordinances, and usurpation of gospel privileges. Who hath required this at your hand? Despised sabbaths and abused sacraments must be reckoned for, and judgment taken out upon an action of waste against all those who received the grace of God in vain.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

A wedding garment - The righteousness of Christ, first imputed, then implanted. It may easily be observed, this has no relation to the Lord's Supper, but to God's proceeding at the last day.

John Wesley (NT Notes)· Explanatory Notes upon the Bible, 1765evangelical
