マタイによる福音書 6:31-33 JC

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 6:32

Parallel passage: Luke 12:30 . Save in reading "but" instead of the second "for," Luke's seems the more original. ( For after all these things do the Gentiles seek ;) for your heavenly Father knoweth , etc. The Revised Version removes the marks of parenthesis. For...for; these are probably co-ordinate, and adduce two reasons for our not being for one moment anxious about earthly things: read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 6:33

Parallel passage: Luke 12:31 , which is shorter. But ; i.e. in contrast to such seeking as he has just spoken of. Our Lord at length gives a distinct promise that if God's cause is made the first aim, all the necessaries of life shall be provided. Seek ye first . The difference between ζητεῖν here and ἐπιζητεῖν in Luke 12:32 seems to be only that the latter points out more clearly the direction of the search. First. If the search for earthly things be put into a secondary... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 6:33

The first object of human pursuit. "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness." In a former homily on this chapter it is shown that the kingdom of God is the dom , or rule, of God's will. There is a traditional sentence given by Origen, and by Clement of Alexandria, which our Lord might have uttered, for it is very like this authentic passage: "Ask great things, and little things shall be added to you; ask heavenly things, and earthly things shall be added to you." Man is... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - Matthew 6:32-33

For after all these things do the Gentiles seek - That is, those destitute of the true doctrines of religion, and unacquainted with proper dependence on Divine Providence, make it their chief anxiety thus to seek food and clothing. But you, who have a knowledge of your Father in heaven; who know that He will provide for your needs, should not be anxious. Seek first His kingdom; seek first to be righteous, and to become interested in His favor, and all necessary things will be added to you. He... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 6:31-32

Matthew 6:31-32. Therefore take no thought Be no more distracted and torn in pieces, as it were, with anxious and unbelieving thoughts, Saying, What shall we eat, &c. How shall we be provided for during the remainder of our lives? For after all these things do the Gentiles seek Who are strangers to the promises of God’s covenant, and to the hopes of his glory. “It was the general character of the heathen, that they prayed to their gods, and laboured themselves, for no blessings but... read more

Matthew 6:33. But You my disciples have more important business to employ your minds about, and have higher hopes to encourage you. Therefore seek ye first That is, in the first place, and with the greatest earnestness and concern, as being the principal things, the kingdom of God As described Romans 14:17, namely, that God, reigning in your heart, may fill it with the holiness above described, and the happiness consequent thereon; and, in order thereto, his righteousness Not your... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Matthew 6:19-34

42. Concern about material things (Matthew 6:19-34; Luke 12:22-34)People who come into the kingdom of God should not view the material things of earthly life as others view them. They should put God’s interests first and be generous in giving to others. Those who set their hearts on material things are being disloyal to God, and guarantee bitter disappointment for themselves in the end (Matthew 6:19-21).To illustrate the results of right and wrong attitudes to material things, Jesus referred to... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Matthew 6:32

For after all these things do the Gentiles seek; for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.The word "Gentiles" means "nations," and may also be freely translated as "pagans" or "heathens" and refers to all natural men everywhere as distinguished from the Hebrews who were a people presumably prepared in heart to discern spiritual things and to receive the Messiah when he should appear. Christ found the chosen people very much like the rest of mankind in spite of all... read more
