马太福音 6:21

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - Matthew 6:19-34

Chapter 22 Christ Anxious About the Heart The Safety of Spiritual Riches the Rectitude of Motive secular Anxiety and Worldly Fear the Uselessness of Anxiety Prayer Almighty God, we have read of thy care of our life, and without reading it in a book we know it well, for day by day thou art at our right hand, thou dost satisfy our mouth with good things, thou dost renew our youth like the eagle's, our strength is returned to us after its expenditure, thou dost keep our eyes from tears, our feet... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - Matthew 6:19-24

No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon. These directions of our LORD are so very plain that they need no comment. I detain the Reader, however, just to ask, the question, not to decide upon that verse: if therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness? Doth not JESUS allude to that kind of head-knowledge, void of heart-influence, which... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 6:19-24

19-24 Worldly-mindedness is a common and fatal symptom of hypocrisy, for by no sin can Satan have a surer and faster hold of the soul, under the cloak of a profession of religion. Something the soul will have, which it looks upon as the best thing; in which it has pleasure and confidence above other things. Christ counsels to make our best things the joys and glories of the other world, those things not seen which are eternal, and to place our happiness in them. There are treasures in heaven.... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Matthew 6:1-99

Matthew 6 HAVING INTRODUCED His disciples to God in this new light at the end of Matthew 5.0 , we notice that all the teaching in Matthew 6.0 is in reference to it. The expression “your Father,” in slightly varying terms, occurs no less than twelve times. The teaching falls into four sections: almsgiving (1-4), prayer (5-15), fasting (16-18), earthly possessions and the necessary things of life (19-34). All four things touched the practical life of the Jew at many points, and their tendency... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Matthew 6:20-21

The only safe treasures: v. 20. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. v. 21. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. The repetition of the same words serves for emphasis. Treasures you may and shall have, of the right kind. Treasure the treasures of the only lasting kind, in heaven, heavenly treasures, the gift and possession donated by God through grace. Value these above... read more

Frederick Brotherton Meyer

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Matthew 6:19-26

What to Seek and Whom to Serve Matthew 6:19-26 What is in our inner life which answers to the eye of the body? Some have said that it is the intellect; others the heart. But it is truer to say that it is the inner purpose and intention of the soul. When our physical eye is in an unhealthy condition, the image is doubled and blurred. To use a common expression, it has a squint, such as affected the noble face of Edward Irving, the noted English clergyman. We are told that as a babe he was... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Matthew 6:1-34

In the first verse the Revised Version has substituted the word "righteousness" for "alms," "a reading approved of, almost unanimously, by the great editors and critics" (Morrison). This is a statement of a new motive for conduct. The application of the principle laid down in verse Mat 6:1 to the subject of alms follows. The secret alms is known to God, who sees in secret. A subject of the King no longer desirous of the applause of his fellow men quietly and secretly helps the needy, and the... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - Matthew 6:21

CHOOSING THE BEST‘Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.’ Matthew 6:21 This is the reason which our Lord gives for the precepts which go immediately before. And our hearts re-echo the Saviour’s words. I. A principle of human nature.—We all know how true it is that a man’s heart, his thoughts, his plans by day and his dreams by night, are with the things he values, whatever they are; with his favourite pursuits or pleasures, his riches, of whatever kind they may be. This is... 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
