MATTHEW 25:44 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?”
Then they also will answer, saying: Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you? The goats' response mirrors the sheep's response: genuine surprise. They also did not see the King in the needy. But their surprise serves the opposite purpose: the sheep's surprise revealed unselfconscious mercy; the goats' surprise reveals unselfconscious indifference.
