Matthew 18:4

Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
All Commentaries on Matthew 18:4 Go To Matthew 18

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Greater in the kingdom of heaven, because more conformable to me here on earth. Humble souls, who are little in their own eyes, are so dear and closely united to the Almighty, that Christ declares them to be the most acceptable, the first in merit, not highest in authority or dignity either in church or state, as some idle fanatics pretend. (Jansenius) The kingdom of heaven is not the reward of ambition, but the boon of simplicity and humility.
