25 There went a great companie with hym: and he returned, and sayde vnto them, 26 If any man come to me, and hate not his father and mother, and wyfe, and chyldren, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his owne lyfe also, he can not be my disciple. 27 And whosoeuer doth not beare his crosse, and come after me, can not be my disciple. 28 For which of you, disposed to buylde a towre, sitteth not downe before, and counteth the cost, whether he haue sufficient to perfourme it? 29 Lest after he hath layde the foundation, and is not able to perfourme it, all that beholde it, begyn to mocke hym, 30 Saying: this man began to buylde, and was not able to make an ende? 31 Or what kyng, goyng to make battell against another kyng, sitteth not downe first, and casteth in his mynde, whether he be able with ten thousande, to meete hym, that commeth agaynst hym with twentie thousande? 32 Or els, whyle the other is yet a great way of, he sendeth an imbassage, and desireth conditions of peace. 33 So lykewyse, whosoeuer he be of you, that forsaketh not all that he hath, he can not be my disciple. 34 Salt is good, but if ye salt haue lost the saltnes, what shalbe seasoned therwith?

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Lest haply after he hath laid the foundation,.... Has begun to build, has taken up a profession, has submitted to ordinances, and got into a church state:

and is not able to finish it; a foundation may be laid, and the building may never be finished, because the foundation is not laid right; was it, it would continue, and the building go on, and at last be finished; though no man is able to finish it of himself, yet those hands which have laid the foundation, will raise up the superstructure, and complete the whole building, through the power and efficacy of divine grace: but where there is a beginning, and which at first looks well, and there is no progress, but the work is dropped and left unfinished,

all that behold it, begin to mock; as follows;

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Haply - Perhaps.

To mock him - To ridicule him. To laugh at him.
