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 E eles nada puderam responder.
7 Quando notou como os convidados escolhiam os lugares de honra Ă  mesa, Jesus lhes contou esta parĂĄbola:
8 “Quando alguĂ©m o convidar para um banquete de casamento, nĂŁo ocupe o lugar de honra, pois pode ser que tenha sido convidado alguĂ©m de maior honra do que vocĂȘ.
9 Se for assim, aquele que convidou os dois virĂĄ e dirĂĄ: ‘DĂȘ o lugar a este’. EntĂŁo, humilhado, vocĂȘ precisarĂĄ ocupar o lugar menos importante.
10 Mas quando vocĂȘ for convidado, ocupe o lugar menos importante, de forma que, quando vier aquele que o convidou, diga: ‘Amigo, passe para um lugar mais importante’. EntĂŁo vocĂȘ serĂĄ honrado na presença de todos os convidados.
