And said,
Verily I say unto you, Except you be converted, and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
All Commentaries on Matthew 18:3 Go To Matthew 18
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
You shall not enter i.e. you shall have no place in my kingdom of glory, in heaven, where none shall find admittance but they that are truly humble. (Witham)
Our Lord in this and the next chapter teaches us, 1st, To sit down in the lowest place; 2nd, to bear patiently with our neighbor; 3rd, not to scandalize a weak brother; 4th, mildly to correct him when faulty; and 5thly, to forgive him when repentant.
