Mt. 8: 5-13: The Jews are the chosen people of
God but since they reject Jesus they forfeit their right to the gentiles -
‘from east and the west’ as in 8:11 who have accepted Jesus. This warning may
be applied today to the new ‘sons of the kingdom’ – the Christians, who belong
to the church but who may be in practice far less ‘Christ-like’ in their
attitude and behavior than the people of other religions.
