5:41

I do not accept glory from men: This clause means “I am not trying to obtain glory from human beings.” Jesus was not speaking and acting the way he did in order to receive human glory or praise.

Here are other ways to translate this clause:

Human glory means nothing to me. (New Jerusalem Bible)
-or-
I am not looking for human praise. (Good News Translation)

glory: The Greek word that the Berean Standard Bible translates as glory here means “praise,” “honor,” or “approval.” See Key Biblical Terms Glory A.3(a).
