Luke 21:14 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 21:14

Settle it therefore in your hearts
Resolve on this in your minds, and let it be a rule never to be departed from: not to meditate before what you shall answer;
not to sit down, and study a form of words, and scheme of things, what to reply to the ensnaring questions, that may be thought would be asked, by kings and rulers, or any of the judges before whom they should be brought; it being natural for persons, especially of a low life, to be timorous and fearful, to appear before such great personages, and to be thoughtful and solicitous what to say to any question that may be asked them; (See Gill on Matthew 10:19).

13 And this shall chaunce you for a testimoniall.

14 Let it sticke therfore faste in youre hertes not once to stody before what ye shall answere:

15 for I will geve you a mouth and wisdome where agaynste all youre adversarys shall not be able to speake nor resist.
