matthew 23:7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.

matthew 23:7 and respectful greetings in the market places, and being called by men, Rabbi.

7. And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi--It is the spirit rather than the letter of this that must be pressed; though the violation of the letter, springing from spiritual pride, has done incalculable evil in the Church of Christ. The reiteration of the word "Rabbi" shows how it tickled the ear and fed the spiritual pride of those ecclesiastics.

matthew 23:7 and respectful greetings in the market places, and being called by men, Rabbi.
