What does Luke 12:28 mean?
If then God so clothe the grass
lilies and tulips; for they are no other than grass, weak, frail,
fading, short lived flowers, which have all their gaiety and
beauty from the great Creator of them:
which is today in the field, and tomorrow is cast into
the
oven:
the grass is one day in the field, in all its verdure, glory, and
beauty; and being cut down before evening, the next day it is
withered and dried, and made fit to put into an oven, or under a
furnace to heat them with:
how much more will he clothe you, O ye of little
faith?
The Persic version renders the words, "how much more excellent
are ye than that, O ye of little faith?" they are more excellent
in their nature, and of a longer duration, and are designed for
greater ends and purposes; and therefore if God clothes the one
in such a manner as he does, how much more will he not clothe the
other? and such who are distrustful and diffident in this matter,
may well be called men of little faith; (See Gill on Matthew
6:30).
