John 19:27

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

John 19:27. Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother!

"John, take her home, and treat her as a mother should be treated."

John 19:27. And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.

He was the disciple whom Jesus specially loved, so as a token of Christ’s great love to him, he left his mother to his charge. Have you any poor folk dependent upon you? Do you know any of God’s very poor people? Take care of them, and do not think the charge a burden; but do it for the sake of him who loves you so much that he entrusts his poor ones to you. Oh, that everybody would look at this matter of caring for God’s poor in that light!
