Matthew 25:43

43 hospes eram et non collexistis me nudus et non operuistis me infirmus et in carcere et non visitastis me

Matthew 25:43 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 25:43

I was a stranger, and ye took me not in
Did not take the poor members of Christ into their houses, and take care of them in their families, when they were obliged to flee from their places of abode, or wandered about preaching the Gospel; and who must have perished in the streets, if others, that bore the Christian name; had not been more compassionate than they:

naked, and ye clothed me not: sick and in prison, and ye visited me
not:
their conduct, behaviour, and character, are just the reverse of the righteous, and therefore it is no wonder that their sentence is different.

Matthew 25:43 In-Context

41 tunc dicet et his qui a sinistris erunt discedite a me maledicti in ignem aeternum qui paratus est diabolo et angelis eius

42 esurivi enim et non dedistis mihi manducare sitivi et non dedistis mihi potum

43 hospes eram et non collexistis me nudus et non operuistis me infirmus et in carcere et non visitastis me

44 tunc respondebunt et ipsi dicentes Domine quando te vidimus esurientem aut sitientem aut hospitem aut nudum aut infirmum vel in carcere et non ministravimus tibi

45 tunc respondebit illis dicens amen dico vobis quamdiu non fecistis uni de minoribus his nec mihi fecistis
