Nor are you to be called instructors The phrase "Nor are you to be called instructors" emphasizes the humility and servitude expected of Christ's followers. The Greek word for "instructors" here is "καθηγητής" (kathēgētēs), which implies a guide or a master teacher. In the historical context of first-century Judaism, rabbis and teachers held positions of great authority and respect. Jesus challenges this societal norm by instructing His disciples not to seek titles that elevate them above others. This teaching aligns with the broader biblical theme of humility, as seen in Philippians 2:3, which encourages believers to "consider others better than yourselves." for you have one Instructor the Christ Parallel Commentaries ...
