- Matthew 10:26–10:33
Matthew 10:29 values sparrows sold cheaply while keeping them within the Father's notice; within Matthew 10:26–10:33, it contributes to this controlling movement: Jesus says hidden realities will be disclosed, calls disciples to public truth without fearing killers of the body, grounds worth in the Father's care, and links confession with his own acknowledgment.
