He shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven, that is, shall have no part in it. He is a stranger to the kingdom of heaven which is on earth. He has no portion in that inheritance, no share of that righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Nor, by consequence, can he have any part in the glory which shall be revealed.

He shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven: that is, shall have no part therein. He is a stranger to the kingdom of heaven which is on earth; he hath no portion in that inheritance; no share of that righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. Nor by consequence can he have any part, in the glory which shall be revealed.
