A wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonah.
And he left them, and departed.
All Commentaries on Matthew 16:4 Go To Matthew 16
Hilary of Poitiers
AD 368
Observe, we do not read here as in other places, that He sent the multitudes away and departed; but because the error of unbelief held the minds of the presumptuous, it is said that He left them.
