Matthew Poole and continuators on Matthew 8:12

12 But the children of the Kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

That is, in short, many of those who are now Heathens shall be saved: And many of the Iews shall be damned. Many, not all, shall come from the East and West, from all parts, from the remotest parts in the World. Luke saith, East, West, North, and South, Luk. 13.29. so Isa. 11.12. & 43.5, 6. and sit down with Abraham, Isaac and Iacob in the Kingdom of God, in Heaven where Abraham, Isaac, and Iacob, the Heads of the Iewish Nation are, to whom the Promises were made. Or, in the Church of God, for the Church Triumphant, and Militant are both but one Church: They shall sit down with them, as Men sit down at a Banquet, an Expression oft used, to signifie, the Rest and Pleasure, the Saints shall have in Heaven, Isa. 25.6, 7, 8. Luk. 22.29, 30. But the Children of the Kingdom, the Iews who boast much that they are the Children of Abraham, and think themselves the only Church, and the only Heirs of Glory, and who are indeed the only Church of God, as yet. Shall be cast out into outer Darkness: Either, the Darkness of Errors, Ignorance, and Superstition, the Gospel-Light shall not shine upon them, they shall be no more the Church of God: Or the Darkness of Hell, where shall be nothing but Pain and Misery, and Lamentations for the Gospel, and the Grace thereof first offered to them, but unthankfully rejected by them, by which they judge themselves unworthy of the Grace of God, and of Eternal Life, Acts 13.46.
