Luke 14:33 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 14:33

So likewise whosoever he be of you
Let him be ever so forward to follow me, to make a profession of me and of my Gospel, and to become a disciple of mine:

that forsaketh not all that he hath;
when called to it, relations, friends, possessions, estates, and what not, which is an explanation of ( Luke 14:26 )

he cannot be my disciple;
he is not in fact one, and is not worthy to be called one.

Luke 14:33 In-Context

31 Or what king on his way to war with another king will not first sit down and consider whether he can engage with ten thousand men the one coming against him with twenty thousand?
32 And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace.
33 In the same way, any one of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be My disciple.
34 Salt is good, but if the salt loses its savor, with what will it be seasoned?
35 It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile, and it is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
