a daughter challenges her mother,
and a daughter-in-law her mother-in-law;
a man’s enemies are his own servants.
Matthew 10:34-36
Not Peace, but a Sword
10:34 “Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace but a sword.

10:36 and a man’s enemies will be the members of his household.

This child
is destined to be the cause of the falling and rising
of many in Israel and to be a sign that will be rejected.
Luke 11:21-23
11:21 When a strong man,
fully armed, guards his own palace,
his possessions are safe.
11:22 But
when a stronger man
attacks
and conquers him, he takes away the first man’s
armor on which the man relied
and divides up
his plunder.
11:23 Whoever is not with me is against me,
and whoever does not gather with me scatters.
Luke 12:51-53
12:51 Do you think I have come to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but rather division!
12:52 For from now on
there will be five in one household divided, three against two and two against three.
12:53 They will be divided,
father against son and son against father, mother against daughter and daughter against mother, mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law against mother-in-law.”
John 7:43
