Humble yourselves The phrase "Humble yourselves" is a call to action, urging believers to adopt a posture of humility. The Greek word used here is "ταπεινόω" (tapeinoō), which means to make low or bring low. In the context of the early Christian community, humility was a counter-cultural value. The Greco-Roman world often celebrated pride and self-promotion, but the Christian message turned this on its head, emphasizing the importance of recognizing one's own limitations and dependence on God. Humility is not about self-deprecation but about acknowledging God's sovereignty and our need for His grace. before the Lord and He will exalt you Parallel Commentaries ...
