Raw Blame History

Connecting Statement:

Here the scene shifts and tells about Jesus' response to some people who wanted to follow him.

Now

This word is used here to mark a break in the main storyline. Here Matthew starts to tell a new part of the story.

he gave instructions

"he told his disciples"

Then

This means after Jesus "gave instructions" but before he could get into the boat.

wherever

"to any place"

Foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests

Jesus answers with this proverb. This means even wild animals have somewhere to rest. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/writing-proverbs)

Foxes

Foxes are animals like dogs. They eat nesting birds and other small animals. If foxes are unknown in your area, use a general term for dog-like creatures or other furry animals. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/translate-unknown)

holes

Foxes make holes in the ground to live in. Use the appropriate word for the place where the animal you use for "foxes" lives.

the Son of Man

Jesus is speaking about himself. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-123person)

nowhere to lay his head

This refers to a place to sleep. AT: "no place of his own to sleep" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom)
