Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 51. - Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division. But the Master quickly leaves himself and his own sad forebodings. He puts by for a season his own holy impatience and continues his warnings. "I have been dwelling on the troublous times quickly coming on. Do not deceive yourselves, my disciples; the great change about to be inaugurated will only be carried out in war and by divisions in the individual house as in the nation. I bring not peace, but a sword, remember." And then follows a curious picture of a home torn asunder by the conflict of thought which would spring up as the result of the cross and of the preaching of the cross.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(51-53) Suppose ye that I am come to give peace?--See Notes on Matthew 10:34-35. The chief variations are "division" for "sword," and, in Luke 12:53, the doubled statement of reciprocated enmity in each relationship.
