Christ said to his disciples, "I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now." As the result of their early education, their ideas upon many points were incorrect, and they were not then prepared to understand and receive some things which he would otherwise have taught them. His instructions would have confused their minds, and raised questioning and unbelief that would have been difficult to remove.

Kristus sagde til sine disciple: "Jeg har endnu mange ting at sige jer, men I kan ikke bære dem nu." Som resultat af deres tidlige uddannelse, var deres tanker på mange punkter ukorrekte, og de var ikke parat til at forstå og tage imod nogle ting som han ellers ville have undervist dem. Hans undervisning ville have forvirret deres sind, og rejst tvivl og vantro, som ellers ville have været svære at fjerne.
