The disciple is not above his master, &c.— "That you may bear all with a becoming fortitude, consider that they have calumniated, traduced, and persecuted me your Master; for which cause you, my disciples, cannot think it hard ifthey calumniate and persecute you." This is a proverbial expression, which our Lord applies on different occasions. Here, and John 15:20 it relates to the persecutions that his disciples were to undergo. It is applied to another subject,John 13:16. Luke 6:40. Concerning Beelzebub, see the note on 2 Kings 1:2.
