SEV Biblia, Chapter 6:31
No os acongojis pues, diciendo: ¿Qu comeremos, o qu beberemos, o con qu nos cubriremos?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Matthew 6:31
Verse 31. What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? &c.] These three inquiries engross the whole attention of those who are living without God in the world. The belly and back of a worldling are his compound god; and these he worships in the lust of the flesh, in the lust of the eye, and in the pride of life.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 31. Therefore take no thought , etc.] That is, for the morrow, as it is explained, ( Luke 6:34) for it is lawful to take proper care and thought for present food, drink, and raiment; but not to be anxiously concerned for futurity; saying, what shall we eat? or what shall we drink? or wherewithal shall we be clothed? These are a repetition of the several things instanced in, and are the very language and expressions of men of little faith; as in the above citation, rjml lkwa hm , what shall I eat tomorrow?
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 25-34 - There is scarcely any sin against which our Lord Jesus more warns his disciples, than disquieting, distracting, distrustful cares about the things of this life. This often insnares the poor as much as the love of wealth does the rich. But there is a carefulness about tempora things which is a duty, though we must not carry these lawful cares to far. Take no thought for your life. Not about the length of it; but refer it to God to lengthen or shorten it as he pleases; our times ar in his hand, and they are in a good hand. Not about the comforts of this life; but leave it to God to make it bitter or sweet as he pleases. Food and raiment God has promised, therefore we may expec them. Take no thought for the morrow, for the time to come. Be no anxious for the future, how you shall live next year, or when you ar old, or what you shall leave behind you. As we must not boast of tomorrow, so we must not care for to-morrow, or the events of it. God has given us life, and has given us the body. And what can he not d for us, who did that? If we take care about our souls and for eternity which are more than the body and its life, we may leave it to God to provide for us food and raiment, which are less. Improve this as a encouragement to trust in God. We must reconcile ourselves to ou worldly estate, as we do to our stature. We cannot alter the disposal of Providence, therefore we must submit and resign ourselves to them Thoughtfulness for our souls is the best cure of thoughtfulness for the world. Seek first the kingdom of God, and make religion your business say not that this is the way to starve; no, it is the way to be wel provided for, even in this world. The conclusion of the whole matte is, that it is the will and command of the Lord Jesus, that by dail prayers we may get strength to bear us up under our daily troubles, an to arm us against the temptations that attend them, and then let non of these things move us. Happy are those who take the Lord for their God, and make full proof of it by trusting themselves wholly to his wise disposal. Let thy Spirit convince us of sin in the want of thi disposition, and take away the worldliness of our hearts __________________________________________________________________
