What does Mark 9:41 mean?
For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to
drink
Not only one that does a miracle in the name of Christ, but he
that shows the least respect, or does the least kindness to any
one of his; (See Gill on Matthew
10:42); is to be reckoned a friend, and is so accounted
by Christ; and will be sooner or later taken notice of by him,
especially, if what he does, be it ever so little, is done on his
account:
in my name, because ye belong to Christ;
or as the Syriac version renders it, "on account that ye are
Christ's"; are his disciples, are called by his name, are
partakers of his grace, bear his image and likeness, are loved by
him, interested in him, given to him, redeemed by him called by
his grace, and shall be with him:
verily l say unto you, he shall not lose his
reward;
(See Gill on Matthew
10:42).
