Pulpit Commentary
Pulpit CommentaryVerse 33. - So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple. "We must live in this world as though the soul was already in heaven and the body mouldering in the grave" (St. Francis de Sales). There was much unreasoning, possibly not a little sentimental enthusiasm, among the people who crowded round Jesus in these last months of his work. The stern, uncompromising picture of what ought to be the life of his real followers was painted especially with a view of getting rid of these useless, purposeless enthusiasts. The way of the cross, which he was about to tread, was no pathway for such light-hearted triflers.
Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(33) Whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not . . .--Better, that renounceth not. This, then, was the immediate lesson which the company of eager disciples had to learn: to say good-bye to their "all," whatever that might be. Fishing-nets and hired servants, or great possessions, or ease and safety, or besetting sins, or fancied righteousness--all had to be renounced. The word for "forsake" is that which was afterwards used in the baptismal formula, "I renounce the devil and all his works," and the same as that which is translated "bidding farewell" in Luke 9:61, Acts 18:18.
