Luke 6:45 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 6:45

A good man out of the good treasure of his heart
This, because of its suitableness and agreement with what goes before, is placed by Luke here; though, according to Matthew, it was spoken at another time and place, unless it should be a repetition there; (See Gill on Matthew 12:35)

for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.
The Vulgate Latin, Arabic, Ethiopic, Syriac, and Persic versions, leave out the word "his"; and the two latter read "lips", instead of "mouth"; (See Gill on Matthew 12:34).

Luke 6:45 In-Context

43 “A good tree doesn't produce bad fruit, nor does a bad tree produce good fruit.

44 Each tree is known by its own fruit. People don't gather figs from thorny plants, nor do they pick grapes from prickly bushes.

45 A good person produces good from the good treasury of the inner self, while an evil person produces evil from the evil treasury of the inner self. The inner self overflows with words that are spoken.

46 "Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord' and don't do what I say?

47 I'll show what it's like when someone comes to me, hears my words, and puts them into practice.
