Goals of this Study Scripturally Define the Role and Title of “Master” & Identify Five Pivotal elements of the Title & Role “Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well”

The “Teacher” - “The Di. Daskolos” (translated “Master”) or equivalent Rabbi Diagram: Illustrating the Title and Role of “The Teacher” – Flows from Left to Right “Mathete” The 12 Disciples - The 12 “Apostelo” All Disciples oll ow &F The Holy Spirit “Teach” “Preach ” “Seen” & “Heard” but not “Seen” The “Waters” or “Sea” = the Nations & The Fish (by extended metaphor) =”The Multitudes” or People Matt 4: 12 -25, Mk 4: 1, Mk 6: 38 -49, Luke 5: 2 -9, Jhn 6: 1 -25, Jhn 21: 1 -13, Acts 27 The Witness of the Father The Witness of The Son The Witness of the Apostles The Keepers of the Witness “Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well” The Apocalypse – The Revealing es” ach “Pre “Te 12 Apostelo The “Witnesses” & “Foundation” ” “Sent” “B eli ev e w” Mat 23: 8 -10 Follo Taught Jhn 8: 28 The Disciples (Learners) The Master ve & The Son “Belie The Father

The Technical Bit Establish the Definition of Master “Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well”

The Title and Role “Master” is all about TEACHING “MASTER” Di daska los - Noun From G 1321; an instructor (generally or specifically): G 1321 – “TO TEACH” Di dasko - Verb A prolonged (causative) form of a primary verb δα ω dao (to learn); to teach “Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well”

IMPORTANT!!! 1) Because the OT term “Master” is translated from the Hebrew “Adon”(Lord) And 2) Because some (very few) occurrences of NT “Kurios” (Lord) are translated “Master” We often make a mistake and Assume that the NT “Master” is about a master/slave relationship IT IS NOT!!!!! “Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well”

IMPORTANT!!! The NT Master title/ role is about a TEACHER/LEARNER relationship In the NT. . . . Greek - Kurios/Doolos = Lord/Slave relationship and Didaskolos/Mathete = Master/Disciple = Teacher/Learner “Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well”

The Lord was a TEACHER who TAUGHT Disciples DISCIPLE - G 3101 mathe te s From G 3129; a learner, that is, pupil: - disciple. A Disciple is a Math etes – a Learner of knowledge Mat 10: 24 The disciple is not above his master, nor the servant above his lord. Mat 10: 25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household? “Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well”

Let’s Summarise -A Master is about Teaching -A Disciple is about Learning -Therefore a Master and Disciple go together -The Role is inherently relationship based Teacher Didaskolos Disciple Mathetes “Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well”

And one last thing. . . . . Respect Deference Copy “Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well”

Forsake and Follow (Mat 4: 20) And they straightway left their nets, and followed him.
