Exposition of the New Testament (1746-1748)

And one of the Pharisees,.... Whose name was Simon, Luk 7:40 Desired that he would eat with him; take a meal with him, either a dinner or a supper: this he did under a disguise of respect, and show of affection to him; though very likely with a design upon him to ensnare him, or take some advantage against him if he could; for it is certain, that he did not treat him with those civilities and ceremonies commonly used to guests; see Luk 7:

Commentary on the Bible (1832)

One of the Pharisees - Called Simon, Luk 7:40. This account is considered by many critics and commentators to be the same with that in Mat 26:6, etc., Mar 14:3; and Joh 12:3. This subject is considered pretty much at large in the notes on Mat 26:6, etc., to which the reader is requested to refer.

Expository Thoughts on the Gospels: Luke (lightly modernized text, Grace Gems edition) (1858)

The deeply interesting narrative contained in these verses, is only found in the Gospel of Luke. In order to see the full beauty of the story — we should read, in connection with it, the eleventh chapter of Matthew. We shall then discover the striking fact that the woman whose conduct is here recorded, most likely owed her conversion to the well-known words, "Come unto Me, all you who labor and are heavy-laden — and I will give you rest."
