Matthew 22:46 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 22:46

And no man was able to answer him a word
They saw the dilemma they were reduced to, either to acknowledge the deity of the Messiah, or confess their ignorance; and neither of them they cared to do, and therefore judged it to be the wisest part to be silent.

Neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more
questions:
neither Pharisees nor Sadducees, for the same is observed by ( Luke 20:40 ) of the Sadducees particularly, and was true of all sorts, and every sect, of men among them: and thus our Lord was freed from a cavilling, captious, and troublesome generation of men, from this time forward, to the time of his sufferings, which was not very long after; for this was the third day before the passover, as appears from ( Matthew 26:1 Matthew 26:2 ) .
