Luk 19:40 | MHM | STEP | v. 40 : Jesus replied, “If these were silent, the very stones would cry out.” (Luke 19:40 ). Even if people stopped praising Jesus, creation itself would praise Him. God will always make sure Jesus is honored, no matter what people do. When Jesus was later rejected by people and His disciples were silent, the earth itself reacted—the ground shook and rocks split open ( the earth did quake and the rocks rent ). This shows that God can use anything to bring glory to His Son.

v. 40: Jesus replied, “If these were silent, the very stones would cry out.” (Luke 19:40 ^a). Even if people stopped praising Jesus, creation itself would praise Him. God will always make sure Jesus is honored, no matter what people do. When Jesus was later rejected by people and His disciples were silent, the earth itself reacted—the ground shook and rocks split open (the earth did quake and the rocks rent).
