Commentary

Woe unto him that saith unto his father, what begettest thou?.... That quarrels with him, and complains of him, beca use he was not of the other sex, or not so wise, or so rich, or so handsome, as others: or to the woman; disdaining to call her mother: what hast thou brought forth? equally as absurd and impious it was in the Jews to quarrel with Christ for his conversation with sinners, and the reception of them; or for the regeneration of such persons; or to find fault with God for the conversion of the Gentiles, and resent it, and be angry at it, as they were; see Rom 10:19 .
