Contextual Overview

1 Then spake Iesus to the multitudes, and to his disciples, 2 Saying: The Scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moyses seate. 3 All therfore, whatsoeuer they bid you obserue, that obserue and do: but do not ye after their workes, for they say, and do not. 4 Yea, they bynde together heauy burthens, and greeuous to be borne, and lay them on mens shoulders: but they them selues wyll not moue them with [one] of their fingers. 5 All their workes they do, for to be sene of men: They make broade their philacteries, and enlarge the hemmes of their garmentes. 6 And loue the vppermost seates at feastes, and to syt in the chiefe place in councels, 7 And greetynges in the markettes, and to be called of men, Rabbi. 8 But be not ye called Rabbi: For one is your maister, [euen] Christe, and all ye are brethren. 9 And call [no man] your father, vpon the earth: for one is your father, which is in heauen. 10 Neither be ye called maisters: for one is your maister [euen] Christe.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then spake Jesus to the multitude,.... To the common people that were about him in the temple; the high priests and elders, Scribes, Pharisees, and Sadducees, having left him, being all nonplussed and silenced by him: and now, lest on the one hand, the people seeing the ignorance and errors of these men detected by Christ, should be tempted to conclude there was nothing in religion, and to neglect the word and worship of God, on account of the concern these men had in it; and on the other hand, because of their great authority and influence, being in Moses's chair, lest the people should be led into bad principles and practices by them, he directs them in what they should observe them, and in what not: that they were not altogether to be rejected, nor in everything to be attended to; and warns them against their ostentation, pride, hypocrisy, covetousness, and cruelty; and, at the same time, removes an objection against himself, proving that he was no enemy to Moses, and the law, rightly explained and practised:

and to his disciples; not only the twelve, but to all that believed in him, and were followers of him.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

NOTES ON CHAP. XXIII.

Verse Matthew 23:2. The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat — εκαθισαν. - They sat there formerly by Divine appointment: they sit there now by Divine permission. What our Lord says here refers to their expounding the Scriptures, for it was the custom of the Jewish doctors to sit while they expounded the law and prophets, (Matthew 5:1 Luke 4:20-22,) and to stand up when they read them.

By the seat of Moses, we are to understand authority to teach the law. Moses was the great teacher of the Jewish people; and the scribes, &c., are here represented as his successors.
