Matthew 19:29

eneral promise for all faithful ones. ἀδελφούς, etc.: detailed specification of the things renounced for Christ. πολλαπλασίονα λήψεται : shall receive manifoldly the things renounced, i.e., in the final order of things, in the new-born world, as nothing is said to the contrary. Mk. and Lk. make the compensation present. καὶ ζωὴν αἰώνιον : this higher boon, the summum bonum, over and above the compensation in kind. Here the latter comes first; in chap. Matthew 6:33 the order is reversed.
