18:17I tell you the truth,51 whoever does not receive52 the kingdom of God like a child53 will never54 enter it.”
Footnotes
- 51 Grk “Truly (ἀμήν, amēn), I say to you.”
- 52 On receive see John 1:12.
- 53 The point of the comparison receive the kingdom of God like a child has more to do with a child’s trusting spirit and willingness to be dependent and receive from others than any inherent humility the child might possess.
- 54 The negation in Greek used here (οὐ μή, ou mē) is very strong.
