Contextual Overview

7 And as they departed, Iesus began to say vnto the multitude cocerning Iohn: What went ye out into the wildernesse to see? A reede shaken with the winde? 8 Or what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft rayment? Beholde, they that weare soft [clothyng] are in kinges houses. 9 But what went ye out for to see? A prophete? yea I say vnto you, and more then a prophete. 10 For this is he of whom it is written: Beholde I sende my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. 11 Ueryly I say vnto you, among them that are borne of women, arose not a greater then Iohn the Baptist: Notwithstandyng, he that is lesse in the kingdome of heauen, is greater then he. 12 From the dayes of Iohn the Baptist vntyll nowe, the kingdome of heauen suffereth violence, & the violent plucke it [vnto them.] 13 For all the prophetes and the lawe it selfe prophecied vnto Iohn. 14 And if ye wyll receaue it, this is Elias which was for to come. 15 He that hath eares to heare, let him heare.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. These words are to be considered in connection with Matthew 11:11 and are a further proof of John's being greater than any of the prophets; because all the inspired writers and prophets, who were before him, prophesied of the Messiah as to come; and either spoke of him in obscure terms, or represented him under dark shadows and figures: whereas John spake of him as already come, and in plain terms, and directed to his very person; and since his time, there have been no prophecies concerning the Messiah and his kingdom; vision and prophecy are now sealed up; all which are acknowledged by the Jews themselves, who b say, כל הנביאים כולז לא נתנבאו אלא לימות המשיח, "all the prophets did not prophesy but to, or of the days of the Messiah". This was the subject, and these the limits of their prophecies; for they own c, that

"from the day that the temple was destroyed, מן הנביאי

בטילה נבואה, "prophecy was taken away from the prophets".''

Since that time, they confess they have had no prophet d, and that they are not able to observe their signs.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

All the prophets ... - It is meant by this verse that John introduced a new dispensation; and that the old one, under which the prophets and the law of Moses were the guide, was closed when he preached that the kingdom of heaven was at hand. By the “law” is meant here the five books of Moses; by the prophets, the remainder of the books of the Old Testament.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Matthew 11:13. All the prophets and the law prophesied until John. — I believe προεφητευσαν means here, they taught, or continued to instruct. They were the instructers concerning the Christ who was to come, till John came and showed that all the predictions of the one, and the types and ceremonies of the other were now about to be fully and finally accomplished; for Christ was now revealed. The word is taken in this sense, Matthew 7:22.
