[18:17]  2 sn On receive see John 1:12.

[18:17]  3 sn The point of the comparison receive the kingdom of God like a child has more to do with a child’s trusting spirit and willingness to be dependent and receive from others than any inherent humility the child might possess.

[18:17]  4 tn The negation in Greek used here (οὐ μή, ou mh) is very strong.
