Matthew20:11
Murmured. Complained. Found fault with.
The good man of the house. The original here is the same word which, Mt 20:1, is translated householder, and should have been so translated here. It is the old English way of denoting the father of a family. It expresses no moral quality.
(c) "against the good man" Lk 15:29,30
