Lucas 14:9 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 14:9

And he that bade thee and him
To the feast, and who is the master of it, and has a right to dispose of, and order his guests at his table, as he thinks fit:

come and say to thee, give this man place;
pray rise up, and give this honourable man this seat, which is more suitable for a person of his rank and figure, and take another:

and thou begin with shame to take the lowest room;
or place, which must unavoidably fill a man with shame and confusion; because hereby his pride and vanity, in affecting the uppermost room, will be publicly exposed; and he who before sat in the chief place, will have the mortification, before all the guests, to be seated in the lowest.

Lucas 14:9 In-Context

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.
11 Porque todo o que a si mesmo se exaltar será humilhado, e aquele que a si mesmo se humilhar será exaltado.
