Matthew 13:51 Jesus said to them, Have you understood all these things? They say to him, Yes, Lord. I charge thee, knowing professor, to remember thy solemn responsibility. I beseech thee, as thou lovest thine own soul, not to make a downy bed out of thy knowledge, for it shall be a thorn in thy dying pillow. I charge thee, man, not to make hell hotter to thyself than it need be by taking all this knowledge in, and punting after more, while you forget that to obey is better than sacrifice, to trust is better than to boast, to love is better than to rival, and to serve out of simple affection is better than to prate, and to discuss, and to criticize, and to censure. (C. H. Spurgeon.) Parallel Verses KJV: Jesus saith unto them, Have ye understood all these things? They say unto him, Yea, Lord.WEB: Jesus said to them, "Have you understood all these things?"
