James 3:1 My brothers, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation. When Faraday was preparing to lecture in natural science at the Royal Institution, he advertised for a retired sergeant to help him with his experiments. Being asked why he sought for a military man, he explained that some of the materials that would be used were dangerous, and that, therefore, he wanted for an assistant not one who would follow his own ignorant judgment, and blow up himself, the professor, and the audience, but one who would do exactly what he would be told, and nothing else. (E. J. Hardy, M. A.) Parallel Verses KJV: My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.WEB: Let not many of you be teachers, my brothers, knowing that we will receive heavier judgment. |
