Mattityahu 6:31 Meaning and Commentary

Matthew 6:31

Therefore take no thought
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, (rxml lkwa hm) , "what shall I eat tomorrow?"

Mattityahu 6:31 In-Context

29 But I say to you that not even Shlomo HaMelech in all his kavod (glory) was clothed as one of these.
30 And if Hashem thus clothes the grass of the field that exists today and tomorrow is thrown into a furnace, how much more will he clothe you, you ones of little emunah?
31 Therefore, do not have a LEV ROGEZ (DEVARIM 28:65), saying, What might we eat? or What might we drink? or With what might we clothe ourselves?
32 For all these things the Goyim strive. For your Av shbaShomayim bavorn (anticipates) that you need all these things.
33 But seek first the Malchut Hashem and the Tzidkat Hashem, and all these things will be added to you.
