* The two F.O.G. Bibles & Commentary below are currently a work in progress.
For there are eunuchs who were born that way; others were made that way by men; and still others live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.”
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven’s sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.”
World English Bible (WEB)
For{G1063} there are{G1526}{(G5748)} some eunuchs{G2135}, which{G3748} were so{G3779} born{G1080}{(G5681)} from{G1537} their mother's{G3384} womb{G2836}: and{G2532} there are{G1526}{(G5748)} some eunuchs{G2135}, which{G3748} were made eunuchs{G2134}{(G5656)} of{G5259} men{G444}: and{G2532} there be{G1526}{(G5748)} eunuchs{G2135}, which{G3748} have made{G2134} themselves{G1438} eunuchs{G2134}{(G5656)} for{G1223} the kingdom{G932} of heaven's sake{G3772}. He that is able{G1410}{(G5740)} to receive{G5562}{(G5721)} it, let him receive{G5562}{(G5720)} it.
Strong's King James
(12) Because there are eunuchs born that way from their mother's womb, eunuchs made a eunuch by men and eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom above. Them able to accept, accept.
The F.O.G*
[12] For some are born unable to consummate, others have been made that way by men, and others have chosen celibacy for the sake of Heaven's Kingdom. The one who can accept this should accept it." Each person's path may differ.
The F.O.G Paraphrase
for there are eunuchs who from the mother’s womb were so born; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who kept themselves eunuchs because of the reign of the heavens: he who is able to receive it—let him receive.’
