Matthew 10:11–15

Click or tap any sentence to jump there. The side buttons skip a paragraph.

He does not want them to change from place to place and house to house, lest grief come to the first host, and lest they take on a suspicion of gluttony and easiness. The dust shaken from their feet is proof of a journey toward them that gained nothing, and of the toils they endured for them. They will be punished equally with the people of Sodom (Genesis 19): those dishonored the angels; these, the apostles (Matthew 10:11–15).

Greek

Οὐ θέλει τόπον ἐκ τόπου καὶ οἰκίαν ἐξ οἰκίας ἀμείβειν αὐτούς, ἵνα μὴ λύπη γένηται τῷ πρώτῳ ὑποδεξαμένῳ μηδὲ ὑπόνοιαν δέξωνται γαστριμαργίας καὶ εὐχερείας. ὁ δὲ κονιορτὸς ἐκτινασσόμενος ἀπὸ τῶν ποδῶν αὐτῶν δεῖγμά ἐστι τῆς ἀνονήτου πρὸς αὐτοὺς ὁδοιπορίας καὶ τῶν κόπων, ὧν ὑπέμειναν δι' αὐτούς. ἴσα δὲ τοῖς Σοδομίταις τιμωρη θήσονται εἴπερ ἐκεῖνοι μὲν ἠτίμασαν τοὺς ἀγγέλους, οὗτοι δὲ τοὺς ἀποστόλους.
