Matthew Poole and continuators on Luke 11:32

32 The men of Nineve shall rise up in the judgment with this generation, and shall condemn it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonas; and behold, a greater then Jonas is here.

See the Notes on Matth. 12.39, 40, 41, 42. Matthew saith, they were the Pharisees that came to him, desiring to see a Sign from Heaven, they did the same again, Matth. 16.1. Christ was very ready to work Miracles, to encourage and confirm his hearers Faith, but not to satisfie unbelievers curiosity. Instead therefore of shewing them▪ Signs from Heaven, he denounceth the just judgment of God against them, for their not believing in him. See further the Notes upon the aforementioned parallel Texts.
