Galatians 6:6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate to him that teaches in all good things. It is one of the tricks of Satan to defraud godly ministers of support, that the Church may be deprived of their services. Paul's recommendation arose from a desire to preserve a gospel ministry. (Calvin.)I do not love to expound such sentences which speak for us that are ministers of the Word; moreover, it may look, if one is zealous to treat such texts before the people, as if he did it on account of avarice. But one must nevertheless instruct the people thereabout, that they may know what degree of honour and support they owe to their teachers. This is also good for us, that are in the ministry, to know that we may not take our deserved recompense with uneasy conscience, as if we had no right to it. (Luther.) Parallel Verses KJV: Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.WEB: But let him who is taught in the word share all good things with him who teaches. |
