Mateus 6:8

Listen to Mateus 6:8
8 Não vos assemelheis, pois, a eles; porque vosso Pai sabe o que vos é necessário, antes de vós lho pedirdes.

Mateus 6:8 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 6:8

Be not ye therefore like unto them
. Do not be imitators of them, and follow their ways, who have only the dim light of nature to guide them; it would be shameful in you to do as they do, when you have a divine revelation for your direction; and especially, because

your Father knoweth what things ye have need of before ye ask him;
and therefore have no need to make use of many words, or much speaking, or long prayers. The omniscience of God is a considerable argument, and a great encouragement to prayer; he knows our persons and our wants before hand; and as he is able to help us, we have reason to believe he will; especially since he stands in the relation of a Father to us.

Mateus 6:8 In-Context

6 Mas tu, quando orares, entra no teu quarto e, fechando a porta, ora a teu Pai que está em secreto; e teu Pai, que vê em secreto, te recompensará.
7 E, orando, não useis de vãs repetições, como os gentios; porque pensam que pelo seu muito falar serão ouvidos.
8 Não vos assemelheis, pois, a eles; porque vosso Pai sabe o que vos é necessário, antes de vós lho pedirdes.
9 Portanto, orai vós deste modo: Pai nosso que estás nos céus, santificado seja o teu nome;
10 venha o teu reino, seja feita a tua vontade, assim na terra como no céu;
