C

Explanation

As Jesus continued with His Galileans ministry, a scribe came and said to Him, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go". Jesus replied, "Foxes have holes and the birds of air have nests, but the son of man has nowhere to lay his head". Another of his followers said, "Let me first go and bury my father" Jesus replied that he should allow the dead to bury their own dead. A third person said, "Lord I will follow you, but let me first say farewell to those at my home", but Jesus replied that no one who puts his hand to the plough and looked back was fit for the kingdom of God. Luke 9:57-63
