NASB | Luke 14:26 "If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be My disciple. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Luke 14:26 "If anyone comes to Me, and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life [in the sense of indifference to or relative disregard for them in comparison with his attitude toward God]--he cannot be My disciple. |
Bible Question: Why does Jesus say that you havbe to hate your mother and father, wife and children, brothers and sisters, and even his own life? |
Bible Answer: "Hate" is a Hebrew idiom that means "love less than." So think in terms of "Unless you love your father, mother, sister, brtother less than me...." See a similar concept in the amplified version translation on this forum site. |
