57 As they headed down the road, someone told Yeshua, “I’ll follow you wherever you go to.”

58 “Foxes have their burrows,” he responded, “and the birds have their nests, but humanity’s child has no home where he can lie down and relax.”

59 Later he told a different person, “Follow me.”

But the man replied, “Master, just let me first go and bury my father.”

60 “Leave those who’re dead to bury the dead by themselves,” Yeshua said, “but you go and tell people about God’s kingdom.”

61 [ref]Also, another person said, “I’ll follow after you, master, but first let me go back and say goodbye to everyone at home.”

62 But Yeshua responded, “No one who starts ploughing a field and then starts looking backwards is suitable for God’s kingdom.”
