Context of Matthew 10:24
22You will be hated by all because of My name, but it is the one who has endured to the end who will be saved. 23“But whenever they persecute you in one city, flee to the next; for truly I say to you, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man comes. “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a slave above his master. 25It is enough for the disciple that he become like his teacher, and the slave like his master. If they have called the head of the house Beelzebul, how much more will they malign the members of his household! 26“Therefore do not fear them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.

Commentaries on Matthew 10:24
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 24The disciple is not above his master - Or in plainer terms, A scholar is not above his teacher. The saying itself requires no comment, its truth and reasonableness are self-evident, but to the spirit and design we should carefully attend. Jesus is the great teacher: we profess to be his scholars. He who keeps the above saying in his heart will never complain of what he suffers. How many irregular thoughts and affections is this maxim capable of…Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 24The disciple is not above his master - That is, you must expect the same treatment which I have received.

See 2 Kings 1:2. The word literally means “the god of flies,” so called because this idol was supposed to…Read the comment

Thus Christ has dealt fairly…Read the comment
