Lucas 6:32

Listen to Lucas 6:32
32 “Que mĂ©rito vocĂȘs terĂŁo se amarem aos que os amam? AtĂ© os pecadores amam aos que os amam.

Lucas 6:32 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 6:32

For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye?
&c.] Or, "what grace have ye?" this is no fruit, nor evidence of grace, nor any exercise of the true grace of love; nor is it any favour conferred upon the object loved, which deserves the respect shown, nor can any reward be expected for such treatment: and thus it is expressed in Matthew, "what reward have ye?" and the Arabic version renders it so here:

for sinners also love those who love them:
men that are destitute of the grace of God, profligate sinners, even the worst of them, such as publicans, do this; (See Gill on Matthew 5:46).

Lucas 6:32 In-Context

30 DĂȘ a todo aquele que pedir, e se alguĂ©m tirar o que pertence a vocĂȘ, nĂŁo lhe exija que o devolva.
31 Como vocĂȘs querem que os outros lhes façam, façam tambĂ©m vocĂȘs a eles.
32 “Que mĂ©rito vocĂȘs terĂŁo se amarem aos que os amam? AtĂ© os pecadores amam aos que os amam.
33 E que mĂ©rito terĂŁo se fizerem o bem Ă queles que sĂŁo bons para com vocĂȘs? AtĂ© os pecadores agem assim.
34 E que mérito terão se emprestarem a pessoas de quem esperam devolução? Até os pecadores emprestam a pecadores, esperando receber devolução integral.
