Matthew 10:3
Matthew 10:3 is the third verse in the tenth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament.
In the original Greek according to Westcott-Hort for this verse is:
In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads:
The New International Version translates the passage as:
Bartholomew is traditionally identified with Nathanael from the Gospel of John. James' father is mentioned to distinguish him from his better known namesake from verse 2 and James, brother of Jesus. Lapide says that Philip is from the Greek words φίλος ἵππων ("a lover of horses"). Thomas, in Greek, is Didymus, a twin. Thaddæus is the same as Jude. MacEvilly notes the humility of Matthew in calling himself a publican.
Philip and Bartholomew. Philip is interpreted, ‘The mouth of a lamp,’ or ‘of lamps,’ because when he had been enlightened by the Lord, he straightway sought to communicate the light to his brother by the means of his mouth. Bartholomew is a Syriac, not a Hebrew, name, and is interpreted ‘The son of him that raiseth watera,’ that is, of Christ, who raises the hearts of His preachers from earthly to heavenly things, and hangs them there, that the more they penetrate heavenly things, the more they should steep and inebriate the hearts of their hearers with the droppings of holy preaching."
Jerome: " The other Evangelists in this pair of names put Matthew before Thomas; and do not add, the Publican, that they should not seem to throw scorn upon the Evangelist by bringing to mind his former life. But writing of himself he both puts Thomas first in the pair, and styles himself the Publican; because, where sin hath abounded, there grace shall much more abound. (Rom. 5:20.)"
Saint Remigius: "Thomas is interpreted ‘an abyss,’ or ‘a twin,’ which in Greek is Didymus. Rightly is Didymus interpreted an abyss, for the longer he doubted the more deeply did he believe the effect of the Lord's passion, and the mystery of His Divinity, which forced him to cry, My Lord and my God. (John 20:28.) Matthew is interpreted ‘given,’ because by the Lord's bounty he was made an Evangelist of a Publican."
