Context of Matthew 19:28
26But Jesus beheld them, and said to them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. 27Then answered Peter and said to him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore? And Jesus said to them, Verily I say to you, That ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name’s sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life. 30But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

Commentaries on Matthew 19:28
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 28Ye which have followed me, in the regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, etc. - The punctuation which I have observed here, is that which is followed by the most eminent critics: the regeneration is thus referred to the time when Jesus shall sit on the throne of his glory, and not to the time of following him, which is utterly improper.

If they live more hardly in this world than…Read the comment

This is a reversal, where those who are rich and powerful now will be judged by those who are humble and poor (see Matthew 19:30). Judging can mean both ruling with authority and condemning for wrongdoing (see Revelation 20:4).Read the comment
