“But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.”
But you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher, and you are all brothers. The disciples are forbidden the rabbi title: they have one teacher (Jesus) and they are siblings — equals, not a hierarchy. The community that Jesus is forming has no human rabbi at its center; the one teacher grounds everyone at the same level as students.
