Matthew 25:39

39 Or when did we see thee sick or in prison and came to thee?

Matthew 25:39 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 25:39

Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto
thee?
] For though he bore the sicknesses of his people, yet we never read of his being sick himself, nor was he ever cast into prison; but this has been the case of many of his servants, as John the Baptist, Peter, and Paul, and multitudes of others, who have been tenderly and affectionately used by their fellow Christians.

40 And the king answering shall say to them: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me.
