And no man was able to answer him a word, neither dared any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.
All Commentaries on Matthew 22:46 Go To Matthew 22
Jerome
AD 420
The Pharisees and Sadducees had been looking for an opportunity for deceiving him, looking to find some word that might be taken advantage of by the plotters. Yet they had been totally confounded in their conversations. So they asked nothing further. What did they do then? All they could do was turn him over to the custody of the Roman authorities. From this we learn that the faults of the jealous are indeed able to be overcome but are difficult to put to rest. .
