Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)

<< Matthew 10:34

Matthew 10:36 >>

Matthew 10:35

Set at variance (dixasai). Literally divide in two, dixa. Jesus uses Micah 7:1-6 to describe the rottenness of the age as Micah had done. Family ties and social ties cannot stand in the way of loyalty to Christ and righteous living.

The daughter-in-law (numfhn). Literally bride, the young wife who is possibly living with the mother-in-law. It is a tragedy to see a father or mother step between the child and Christ.
