LUKE 18:16 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.”
But Jesus called the children to him and said, let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these — let the little children come and do not hinder them: the reversal of the disciples' rebuke. The kingdom of God belongs to such as these: the children's belonging is constitutive — the kingdom belongs to those who share the child's status (dependence, no claim, receiving rather than achieving).
