2. That it is the Lord of the harvest who has power to send forth labourers into His harvest. We rely too much on our own agencies.

3. The strong expression of constraint which the Lord here uses — "that He may cast out." It has been so with the more eminent saints at all times.

(S. Leathes, D. D.)
