That servant who knew his master’s will but did not get ready or do what his master asked will receive a severe beating.
But the one who did not know his master’s will and did things worthy of punishment will receive a light beating. From everyone who has been given much, much will be required, and from the one who has been entrusted with much, even more will be asked.
Not Peace, but Division“I have come to bring fire on the earth– and how I wish it were already kindled!
I have a baptism to undergo, and how distressed I am until it is finished!
Do you think I have come to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division!
For from now on there will be five in one household divided, three against two and two against three.
They will be divided, father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”
