 The Lord is there showing, not the state of things found under the public profession of the name of Christ, but the hidden things, or those which require discernment. (Remarks on Matthew 13:31-52 by W. Kelly)
 It is Himself, who gave up all His rights in order that He might have sinners washed in His blood and redeemed to God; it was He who bought the world, in order to acquire the treasure He valued. The two things are distinctly presented in John 17:2, "As Thou hast given Him power over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as Thou hast given Him." (Remarks on Matthew 13:31-52 by W. Kelly)
 “Treasure hid in a field” is not Israel, on whom He has turned His back after they had rejected Him. He is now engaged with another treasure from among the Gentiles (Acts 15:14; Titus 2:14; 1 Peter 2:9). Matthew 13 is occupied with the present phase of the kingdom of heaven and then the outcome, without reference to the future prophetic things concerning Israel. (Help on Hard Verses by A.C. Brown)
