Matthew 23:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 23:7

5 But all their works they do to ^abe seen by men. They make their phylacteries broad and enlarge the borders of their garments.

6 ^aThey love the best places at feasts, the best seats in the synagogues,

7 greetings in the marketplaces, and to be called by men, ‘Rabbi, Rabbi.’

8 ^aBut you, do not be called ‘Rabbi’; for One is your¹ Teacher, the Christ, and you are all brethren.

9 Do not call anyone on earth your father; ^afor One is your Father, He who is in heaven.

10 And do not be called teachers; for One is your Teacher, the Christ.

11 But ^ahe who is greatest among you shall be your servant.
