14 Nevertheless to Tyre and Sidon it shall be easier in the doom than to you.

Luke 10:14 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 10:14

But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at
the judgment
Or "in the day of judgment", as read the Syriac, Persic, Ethiopic, and Gothic versions; and as it is in ( Matthew 11:22 )

than for you;
the inhabitants of Chorazin and Bethsaida, who will be more severely punished than these Gentile cities; for by how much greater were their light, privileges, and advantages against which they sinned, by so much will be their severer punishment.

Luke 10:14 In-Context

12 [Forsooth] I say to you, that to Sodom it shall be easier [for to Sodom, it shall be easier, or less pain,] than to that city in that day.
13 Woe to thee, Chorazin; woe to thee, Bethsaida; for if in Tyre and Sidon the works of power [the virtues] had been done, which have been done in you, sometime they would have sat in haircloth and ashes, and have done penance [sometime they sitting in haircloth and ashes, should have done penance].
14 Nevertheless to Tyre and Sidon it shall be easier in the doom than to you.
15 And thou, Capernaum, art enhanced till to heaven; thou shalt be drowned till into hell [thou shalt be drowned down into hell].
16 He that heareth you, heareth me; and he that despiseth you, despiseth me; and he that despiseth me, despiseth him that sent me.
