'What right do you have here,It appears a steward has forgotten his place. He is entrusted to lead in lieu of the king, but he has taken on the king's privileges. He thinks he is king, rather than a keeper, and has glorified himself appropriately.
And whom do you have here,
That you have hewn a tomb for yourself here,
You who hew a tomb on the height,
You who carve a resting place for yourself in the rock?
So it is with us, if we're not careful. We act like we are in charge, instead of a steward, entrusted with things from God. We act like we own the world, when we are merely to keep ready for when the Lord returns.
