Матфей 6:30 - Алланың қамқорлығы және уақыттың өтімділігі

Verse of the Bible

Matthew 6:30 is the thirtieth verse of the sixth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament and is part of the Sermon on the Mount. This verse continues the discussion of worry about material provisions.

Jesus has been discussing the lilies in the field, and how even these simple flowers are more finely clothed than Solomon. In this verse he states that if God clothes the lowly flowers so grandly, he will certainly ensure that his human followers are properly clad. This is very similar to Matthew 6:26, with lilies and clothes in place of birds and food. The grass of the field of this verse is presumed to be the lilies of Matthew 6:27, implying that Jesus was speaking of the abundant wild flowers that will fill local fields. Wood has always been in short supply in Palestine and the burning of grasses was an important source of fuel. William Barclay states that they were typically thrown into the clay ovens of the region when it was necessary to rapidly increase the heat. These ovens would be used to bake the bread the populace subsisted on. There are two lessons generally read into this verse. The first is that beauty and the physical are fleeting: what is splendid one day can be thrown into the fire the next. This perhaps links with Matthew 6:20, where Jesus contrasts the impermanence of physical things with the eternal nature of the spiritual. Harrington links this verse to , which also discussed the fleeting nature of grass and flowers. Secondly it shows how unimportant these flowers are. They are commonly sacrificed en masse for the simple task of baking bread, yet God provides them with beautiful raiments. If God provides for such lowly flowers, he would surely do so for the humans made in his image. The Gospel of Thomas contains a version of this verse, but it comes to a very different conclusion, arguing that clothing is useless and should be dispensed with. The vocative "O ye of little faith", ολιγοπιστοι (oligopistoi), appears several times in the Gospels. It is one of Jesus' strongest admonitions of his disciples.

Jerome: To morrow in Scripture is put for time future in general. Jacob says, So shall my righteousness answer for me to morrow. (Gen. 30:33.) And in the phantasm of Samuel, the Pythoness says to Saul, To morrow shalt thou be with me. 1 Sam. 28:19.)
