Sermon Bible Commentary - Matthew 6:10

Matthew 6:10 I. As it is in heaven. The nature and manner of heavenly employments are not precisely known to us. But of some of the qualities of that perfect doing of God's will we can treat from what we know of ourselves, who, a little lower than the angels, are, like them, beings with reason and affections and spiritual life before God. And we may observe (1) that their doing of God's will is without selfishness. No idol set up within interferes with the proper aim and end of action. (2)... read more

Charles Simeon's Horae Homileticae - Matthew 6:10

DISCOURSE: 1314THE LORD’S PRAYERMatthew 6:10. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.HIGHLY as the Lord’s Prayer is esteemed amongst us, and frequently as it is used, there is scarcely any part of Scripture less considered: we are contented with repeating the words, without ever attending to its true import. The fact is, that though it is written for the use of all, none can use it aright but the true Christian: it is the Christian only, whose heart can embrace the... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Matthew 6:1-34

Tonight let's take a look at Matthew, chapter six. We are in the section of the book of Matthew that is commonly called the Sermon on the Mount because it was delivered to the disciples of Jesus on the mountainside there above the Sea of Galilee. "Seeing the multitudes, he went into a mountain: and he was set, his disciples came unto him: and he opened his mouth and he taught them, saying," ( Matthew 5:1-2 ).So the first thing we note is that this Sermon on the Mount is not for general world... read more

Sutcliffe's Commentary on the Old and New Testaments - Matthew 6:1-34

Matthew 6:1 . Take heed that ye do not your alms before men. It is a dispute whether alms or righteousness be the true reading. The old copies had righteousness. Chrysostom in one place has righteousness, in another alms. Daniel said to Nebuchadnezzar, Break off thy sins by righteousness, and thine iniquities by showing mercy to the poor. Daniel 2:27. Righteousness is the sense, alms the gloss. The jews often described alms by the former term; and alms is allowed to be one branch of the... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - Matthew 6:10

10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Ver. 10. Thy kingdom come ] Thy kingdom of power and providence; but especially enlarge thy kingdom of grace, and hasten thy kingdom of glory. The Jews pray almost in every prayer, "Thy kingdom come," and that Bimheroth, Bejamenu, quickly, even in our days. But it is for an earthly kingdom; that which the apostles also so deeply dreamed of that our Saviour had very much ado to dispossess them. For most absurdly and... read more
