Matthieu 10:12 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 10:12

And when ye come into an house
Or the "house"; that is, the house of an hospitable man, when, upon inquiry, found out:

salute it;
meaning the inhabitants of it; or, as the Persic version reads, those of the household, especially the master of the family. Some copies add, saying, peace be to this house, as in ( Luke 10:5 ) and so read the Vulgate Latin, and Munster's Hebrew Gospel; and is a very just, and proper explanation of saluting: for the usual form of salutation among the Jews was in such words; of which (See Gill on Matthew 5:47) by which is meant all kind of happiness, and prosperity, temporal, spiritual, and eternal.

Matthieu 10:12 In-Context

10 Ni sac pour le voyage, ni deux habits, ni souliers, ni bâton; car l'ouvrier est digne de sa nourriture.
11 Et dans quelque ville ou bourgade que vous entriez, informez-vous qui y est digne; et demeurez chez lui jusqu'à ce que vous partiez.
12 Et quand vous entrerez dans quelque maison, saluez-la.
13 Et si la maison en est digne, que votre paix vienne sur elle; mais si elle n'en est pas digne, que votre paix retourne à vous.
14 Et partout où l'on ne vous recevra pas, et où l'on n'écoutera pas vos paroles, en sortant de cette maison ou de cette ville, secouez la poussière de vos pieds.
