matthew 10:41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward. - Free Bible Online

matthew 10:41 "He who receives a prophet in [the] name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.


      41. He that receiveth a prophet--one divinely commissioned to deliver a message from heaven. Predicting future events was no necessary part of a prophet's office, especially as the word is used in the New Testament.
      in the name of a prophet--for his office's sake and love to his master. (See 2Ki 4:9 and see on 2Ki 4:10).
      shall receive a prophet's reward--What an encouragement to those who are not prophets! (See Joh 3:5-8).
      and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man--from sympathy with his character and esteem for himself as such
      shall receive a righteous man's reward--for he must himself have the seed of righteousness who has any real sympathy with it and complacency in him who possesses it.
