Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Matthew 7:7

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

7. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you —Though there seems evidently a climax here, expressive of more and more importunity, yet each of these terms used presents what we desire of God in a different light. We ask for what we wish; we seek for what we miss; we knock for that from which we feel ourselves shut out. Answering to this threefold representation is the triple assurance of success to our believing efforts. "But ah!" might some humble disciple say, "I cannot persuade myself that I have any interest with God." To meet this, our Lord repeats the triple assurance He had just given, but in such a form as to silence every such complaint. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-8" class="com-number"
