Preach Boldly (10:26-27)

In view of the impending end-time vindication (Mt 11:19), Jesus' followers should preach boldly, fearing no shame from their peers in this world. Because the flat housetops above the streets (24:17) provided easier hearing than the streets themselves, "shouting from the housetops" (10:27) underlines the boldness with which disciples must make God's message known.
