Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.
(Hebrews 13:2 NIV)
The Greek word translated here as “hospitality” is philoxenia—to befriend or entertain a stranger. This has the same root word as xenophobia—to fear a stranger.
ACTION: Reflect. How does this affect your understanding of the verse above?
