Gerettete Spatzen, behütete Menschen: ein neues Verständnis von Matthäus 10,29
A well-known point of comparison for Christ’s followers is Matthew 10.29 with its statement, that sparrows – Greek: strouthia – have no economic value, but that no sparrow falls without God.

| Riepilogo: | A well-known point of comparison for Christ’s followers is Matthew 10.29 with its statement, that sparrows – Greek: strouthia – have no economic value, but that no sparrow falls without God. This means that everyone can be sure that God looks after the much more valuable species mankind: A widespread interpretation, which works without any explanation. In other understandings of the text the falling birds are dead birds, which brings a negative touch to the chapter. The meaning of 10.29 is shown here to be only positive: It is about young birds falling out of their nest and surviving – as described in ancient literature by Aristotle. This interpretation fits well with other mentions of God’s care for birds in the Bible – especially Matthew 6.26 – and generates a perfect parallel for the followers of Christ in Matthew 10, leaving their home and coming into dangerous situations. But there is hope. |
