Another disciple said to him,“ Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”

Another of the disciples said to him,“ Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”

Another of his disciples said,“ Lord, first let me return home and bury my father.”

“ Lord,” another of his disciples said,“ first let me go bury my father.”

And another of the disciples said to Him,“ Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”

Then another of His disciples said to Him,“ Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”

And another of the disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.

“ Lord,” another of His disciples said,“ first let me go bury my father.”

And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go and bury my father.

He said to another man,“ Follow me.” But the man replied,“ Lord, first let me go and bury my father.”Jesus said to him,“ Let dead people bury their own dead. You go and tell others about God’s kingdom.”Still another person said,“ I will follow you, Lord. But first let me go back and say goodbye to my family.”Jesus replied,“ Suppose someone starts to plow and then looks back. That person is not fit for service in God’s kingdom.”

“‘ And they must not go near a dead body during that whole time.But what if their father or mother dies? Or what if their brother or sister dies? Then they must not make themselves“ unclean” because of them. The hair on their heads shows they are set apart for God.

He must not enter a place where there is a dead body. He must not make himself“ unclean,” even if his father or mother dies.He must not leave the sacred tent of the Lord to take part in burying a body. That would bring shame on the tent. The anointing oil has set the high priest apart. I am the Lord.

Suppose anyone has left houses, brothers or sisters, father or mother, husband or wife, children or fields because of me. Anyone who has done that will receive 100 times as much. They will also receive eternal life.

Here is what the Lord who rules over all says.“ The people of Judah say,‘ It’s not yet time to rebuild the Lord’ s temple.’ ”

Levi didn’t show special favor to anyone. He did not spare his father and mother. He didn’t excuse his relatives or his children. But he watched over your word. He guarded your covenant.He teaches your rules to the people of Jacob. He teaches your law to Israel. He offers incense to you. He sacrifices whole burnt offerings on your altar.

Then Elisha left his oxen. He ran after Elijah.“ Let me kiss my father and mother goodbye,” he said.“ Then I’ll come with you.”“ Go back,” Elijah replied.“ What have I done to you?”So Elisha left him and went back. He got his two oxen and killed them. He burned the plow to cook the meat. He gave it to the people, and they ate it. Then he started to follow Elijah. He became Elijah’s servant.

So from now on we don’t look at anyone the way the world does. At one time we looked at Christ in that way. But we don’t anymore.
