Matthew 5:11

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

It is enough for the disciple that he be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord.

And they that were passing by reviled him, wagging their heads and saying,

For John the Baptist came neither eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.

Are ye also willing to be his disciples? Then they reviled him and said, Thou art a disciple of that fellow; but we are disciples of Moses.

Who when he was reviled, reviled not again, when he suffered he threatened not, but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:

If the world hate you, ye know it hated me, before it hated you.

Let us then go forth to him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
