James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 6:32

THE ANTIDOTE TO ANXIETY‘Your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.’ Matthew 6:32 Anxiety must be a sin. And it must be a sin very deep in the heart. So large a portion of the Sermon on the Mount would never have been directed against anxiety, if the sin were not very large, and its grasp very wide. I. Why no man should be anxious.—For observe, there are at least seven reasons brought forward, in quick succession, why no man should be anxious.( a) Anxiety is part of... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 6:33

THE PRINCIPLES OF THE KINGDOM‘Seek ye first the kingdom of God.’ Matthew 6:33 These are words of the kind with which we find it hard to deal sincerely; too true to be denied, too high to be practically accepted, we are tempted to pass them by with some kind of complimentary acknowledgment. Yet evidently they were not meant for this—they were meant to be entirely practical, they were spoken for all to hear, and therefore for all to use.The principles of the Kingdom of God! How shall we... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 6:1-34

THE LAW AND THE PROPHETS. THE FULFILMENT OF THE INSTRUCTION OF YHWH AND OF THE PROPHETIC HOPES (5:17-7:12). Having revealed how God has worked in His disciples in a life-transforming way in Matthew 5:3-9, and having shown them that they are to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world in Matthew 5:13-16, Jesus now goes into detail about what that will involve, and how it will lead up to the final consummation, that is to the fulfilment of the Law (the Torah - The Instruction of God)... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 6:19-34

Three (or Four) Commands Which Concern The Attitude That His Disciples Should Take Up With Regard To The World Emphasising The Taking Up Of A Positive Spiritual Attitude And The Eschewing Of A Worldly Negative Attitude (6:19-7:12). Having described how His disciples are to behave towards the Law (Matthew 5:21-48), and having considered their attitude towards charitable giving, prayer and fasting (Matthew 6:1-18), Jesus now turns to consider: 1). What they should do about material wealth... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 6:25-34

We Are Not To be Taken Up With Concern About Our Daily Needs, But Are To Ensure That Our Concern Is Fixed On Seeking God’s Kingly Rule And The Establishment On Earth of His Righteousness (6:25-34). Having dealt with how His disciples should view their possessions, Jesus now turns to the danger of their being taken up with their needs, bringing out two opposing problems. Some stumble because they enjoy too much, others because they have not enough. We can compare here Proverbs 30:9; ‘Give me... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 6:31-33

a Be not therefore anxious, saying, a What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? a Or, With what shall we be clothed? b For after all these things do the Gentiles seek (or ‘chase’), b For your heavenly Father knows that you have need of all these things. a But seek you first his Kingly Rule, and his righteousness, a And all these things will be added to you. In view of what He has been saying about God feeding and clothing natural things anxiety about food and clothing is folly. It is not to... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 6:19-34

Matthew 6:19-Nahum : . True Righteousness in Relation to Wealth.— The Sermon here passes from the shortcomings of the Scribes and Pharisees. There are scattered parallels to this section in Lk. Matthew 6:19-Ecclesiastes : . Treasure ( Luke 12:33 f.).— Jesus has already spoken of earthly and heavenly reward; here the theme is earthly and heavenly wealth. Note the Hebraic parallelism and tautology in this thumbnail sketch of Oriental wealth, consisting largely of garments ( cf. James 5:2 f.).—... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 6:31-32

Our Lord repeateth the precept before given, Matthew 6:25, wherein he forbids not all moderate and provident thoughts for things necessary, but only such thoughts as shall argue our distrust in God, or perplex and distract our minds, or be inconsistent with our duty, and the employment of our thoughts about higher and better things. This he here presseth by two arguments. 1. Because these are the things which people spend all their thoughts upon, who are not aware that they have souls to take... read more

Matthew Poole

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Matthew 6:33

The kingdom of God, and his righteousness, in this verse, are terms comprehensive of whatsoever appertaineth to the honour and glory of God, either as means, or as the end. Let your principal care and study be how to get to heaven, and how to promote the kingdom of God in the world; to bring your hearts into subjection to the will of God, that the kingdom of God may be within you, and how to bring others to the obedience of faith and of the will of God. And for the things of this life, it shall... read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Matthew 6:25-34

CRITICAL NOTESMatthew 6:25. Therefore.—Denoting a connection between the service of mammon and “taking thought.” Take no thought.—Be not anxious (R.V.). Life.—The Greek word is the same as that commonly rendered “soul,” and the passage is interesting as an example of its use in the wider sense, which includes the lower as well as the higher life (Plumptre.)Matthew 6:26. Fowls.—Old English for birds.Matthew 6:27. Stature.—The Greek word admits either this meaning (as in Luke 19:3, and perhaps... read more
