A scribe came and said to him, “Rabbi, I will follow you wherever you go.”
this Ezra went up from Babylon. He was a skilled scribe in the Torah of Moses, which the LORD, the God of Israel, had given; and the king granted him all his request, according to the LORD his God’s hand on him.
So therefore, whoever of you who doesn’t renounce all that he has, he can’t be my disciple.
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
But with you it may be that I will stay with you, or even winter with you, that you may send me on my journey wherever I go.
