People's Commentary (NT)
Matthew 27:19
When he was set down on the judgment seat. Probably while the
people were deciding for which one to ask. The judgment seat was a kind
of lofty official throne, placed on the pavement (John 19:13).
His wife sent unto him. On this sad day the voice of a Gentile
woman was the only one that interceded for Christ. That she should
speak of Jesus as a "righteous man", shows that she knew much of him
and that he had already made a wide and deep impression.
A dream. It may have been entirely natural. She was probably
already deeply interested in Jesus and knew that he was to be seized in
the night. Her waking thoughts would be reflected in her sleep.
