Matthew 11:30

Verse 30. My yoke is easy, etc. That is, the services that I shall require are easily rendered. They are not burdensome, like all other systems of religion. So the Christian always finds them. In coming to him, there is a peace which passeth all understanding; in believing in him, joy; in following him through evil and good report, a comfort which the world giveth not; in bearing trials, and in persecution, the hope of glory; and in keeping his commandments, great reward. {g} "my yoke is easy" 1 Jn 5:3 REMARKS ON MATTHEW CHAPTER 11 (1.) Anxiety about the person and works of Christ is peculiarly proper, Mt 11:2,3.
