The Lord’s Invitation Matthew 11:20-30 Who is invited? “… all who are …” “weary” - tired, exhausted, or fatigued. “Beaten out” (Vine) (Jeremiah 31:25; Psalms 107:9; John 7:37) “heavy-laden” - overburdened with spiritual anxiety, loaded down with sin. Luke 11:46 Lit. “Come here” or “come hither”

The Lord’s Invitation Matthew 11:20-30 The Lord’s requirement: “Take My yoke upon you …” “Serving to couple two things together” (Vine) A symbol of servitude - one who has yielded (forcibly or willingly) control to another.

The Lord’s Invitation Matthew 11:20-30 The Lord’s offer: “I will give you rest … you will find rest for your souls” “Recover and collect his strength to give rest, refresh” (Thayer) (Where do we seek our rest? Luke 12:19) Rest from what? (compare Matthew 5:10-12; 10:34; with John 16:33; Revelation 6:11; 14:13) We must exercise diligence to obtain rest. Hebrews 4:11 Weight of sin and guilt. A debt we cannot pay. Matthew 18:24 Slavery of the law and man-made traditions. Matthew 23:4; Luke 11:46 Worries and troubles of this life.
