Mattityahu 9:31 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 9:31

But they, when they were departed
That is, out of the house where they received their cure, and out of the city; for it appears, by what follows, they went into other parts, where it is probable they might originally belong; they

spread abroad his fame in all that country.
This they did, not in contempt of Christ and his orders; but rather out of gratitude to their benefactor, and through an honest zeal to spread his honour and glory: though they are not to be commended for disregarding the command of Christ; for, not our affection, but Christ's will, is to be the rule of our actions.

Mattityahu 9:31 In-Context

29 Then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach touched their eyes, saying, According to your emunah, let it be done for you.
30 And their eyes were opened. Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach sternly warned them, saying, See to it that no one knows!
31 But having gone out, they made him known in that entire district.
32 After they had departed, the people brought to him a mute man who was possessed by shedim.
33 And when the shedim had been cast out by Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, the mute man spoke. And the multitudes marveled, saying, Never was anything like this seen in Eretz Yisroel!
