Luke 6:24

But woe unto you that are rich (Plhn ouai umin toiv plousioiv). Sharp contrast (plhn). As a matter of fact the rich Pharisees and Sadducees were the chief opposers of Christ as of the early disciples later (James 5:1-6).

Ye have received (apexete). Receipt in full apexw means as the papyri show.

Consolation (paraklhsin). From parakalew, to call to one's side, to encourage, to help, to cheer.
