Thomas Brooks emphasizes that God judges His people based on their sincerity and the overall condition of their hearts rather than their momentary actions during trials or temptations. He highlights that God's focus is on the inward disposition and will of His people, showing that He does not forsake them due to their weaknesses or failings. Instead, God offers compassion and understanding, assuring that He will not reject His people despite their struggles.

Horatius Bonar emphasizes the compassionate invitation of Jesus to the weary and burdened, highlighting that it is not mere human sympathy but the divine love of God reaching out to offer true rest. He addresses the inhabitants of Galilee, who were deemed the least deserving, yet are called to receive this gift of rest, which is freely given and cannot be earned. Bonar explains that this rest is specifically for those who are weary from any form of toil or burden, and it is obtained by coming directly to Christ. He stresses that this rest is a gift from Christ, meant for all who recognize their need for it, and that it is accessible through a personal relationship with Him. The sermon concludes with a call to action, urging the weary to accept Christ's invitation to find rest in Him.
