Lucas 14:8 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 14:8

When thou art bidden of any man to a wedding
To a wedding dinner, or to any other; such an one as the present entertainment was, which was not a marriage feast, for they might not marry on the sabbath day; (See Gill on John 2:1) but a common sabbath meal:

sit not down in the highest room:
in the chief place at table, as soon as come in:

lest a more honourable man;
for age, office, dignity, wisdom, learning, or riches:

than thou be bidden of him:
the master of the feast; and who may not yet be come, and for whom the chief place may be designed, and will better suit him.

Lucas 14:8 In-Context

6 A isto nada puderam responder.
7 Ao notar como os convidados escolhiam os primeiros lugares, propôs-lhes esta parábola:
8 Quando por alguém fores convidado �s bodas, não te reclines no primeiro lugar; não aconteça que esteja convidado outro mais digno do que tu;
9 e vindo o que te convidou a ti e a ele, te diga: Dá o lugar a este; e então, com vergonha, tenhas de tomar o último lugar.
10 Mas, quando fores convidado, vai e reclina-te no último lugar, para que, quando vier o que te convidou, te diga: Amigo, sobe mais para cima. Então terás honra diante de todos os que estiverem contigo � mesa.
