The Pulpit Commentary on Matthew 10:24

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

The (a, Revised Version) disciple. The absence of the article lays more stress on the man's position as disciple. Is not above. The emphasis of the sentence is upon the denial of such a possibility ( οὐκ ἔστιν ὁμαθητής).

His master; teacher; διδάσκαλον. Nor the (a, Revised Version) servant above his lord.
