34, 35, 36. Think not that the coming of the Messiah is to settle Israel in power, and bring all Nations to subjection or peaceable confederacy with them, and to set my disciples in a state of prosperity: you must expect the contrary, that by owning me and my doctrine, your very friends and kindred will turn your enemies, Parents and Children will hate and persecute you, and out of your own houses will arise your most dangerous enemies.
37. He that loveth father or mother more than me, is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter, more than me, is not worthy of me.
