Mattityahu 8:19-21

Orthodox Jewish Bible

¹⁹ A sofer (scribe, Torah teacher) approached Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and said, Rebbe, I will follow you wherever you go.

²⁰ And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, Foxes have holes and the OPH HASHOMAYIM (birds of heaven, IYOV 35:11) have nests, but the Ben HaAdam [Moshiach, DANIEL 7:13-14] does not have a place where he may lay his head.

²¹ And another of Moshiach’s talmidim said to him, Adoneinu, allow me first to go and bury my father.
