... the man whose mind is distracted by his wealth, and, as it were, entangled with thorns, so that he brings forth no spiritual fruit; or whether it is the man who is rich in the sense of abounding in false notions, of whom it is written in the Proverbs, “Better is the poor man who is just, than the rich man who is false.” Perhaps it is the following passages which have led Celsus to suppose that Jesus forbids ambition to His disciples: “Whoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all;”[Mark 10:44] “The princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them,” and “they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.” But there is nothing here inconsistent with the promise, “Thou shalt rule over many nations, and they shall not rule over ...

Not thus shall it [Arabic, p. 118] be amongst you: but he amongst you that would be great, let him be to you a [4] servant;[Mark 10:44] and whoever of you would be first, let him be to every man a [5] bond-servant: even as the Son of man also came not to be served, but to serve, and [6] to give himself a ransom in place of the many. He said this, and was going about [7] the villages and the cities, and teaching; and he went to Jerusalem. And a ...
