Fear not therefore, you are of more value than many sparrows.
All Commentaries on Matthew 10:31 Go To Matthew 10
Theophylact of Ochrid
AD 1107
So that they would not fear that they are abandoned, He says, "If not even a sparrow is caught without My knowledge, how shall I abandon you whom I love?" And to show His precise knowledge and forethought for us He says that even the hairs of our head are numbered by Him. But do not think that the sparrows are snared by God’s doing; rather, that even the snaring of sparrows is not unknown to Him.
