Matthew 10:26 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 10:26

24 ^a“A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a servant above his master.

25 It is enough for a disciple that he be like his teacher, and a servant like his master. If ^athey have called the master of the house¹ Beelzebub, how much more will they call those of his household!

26 Therefore do not fear them. ^aFor there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be known.

Jesus Teaches the Fear of God

27 “Whatever I tell you in the dark, ^aspeak in the light; and what you hear in the ear, preach on the housetops.

28 ^aAnd do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather ^bfear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in¹ hell.

29 Are not two ^asparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father’s will.

30 ^aBut the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
