And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues, and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Verily, I say to you, they have their reward.

It is enough for the disciple that he should be as his teacher, and the servant as his lord: if they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call them of his household?

But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

And Pilate gave sentence that it should be as they required.

Isaiah also crieth concerning Israel, Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, a remnant shall be saved:

But this I say, brethren, The time is short. It remaineth, that both they that have wives, be as though they had none;

And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;

But without thy mind I would do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
