Matthew 633

Matthew 6:33 is a verse from the New Testament of the Christian Bible, found in the Sermon on the Mount, a series of teachings by Jesus Christ. The verse reads: "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." This passage is often interpreted as a call to prioritize spiritual values and trust in divine providence over worldly concerns. The phrase "kingdom of God" refers to the reign or rule of God, both in the present and the future, encompassing spiritual growth and moral conduct. The "these things" likely refers to material needs such as food, clothing, and shelter, which Jesus assures will be provided when one's primary focus is on seeking God's kingdom and righteousness. In Hebrew, the phrase "kingdom of God" can be translated as מַלְכוּת הָאֱלֹהִים (Malkhut ha'Elohim). In Greek, the original language of the New Testament, it is βασίλεία τοῦ θεοῦ (Basileia tou Theou). In Latin, a significant language for biblical translation, it is regnum Dei. This verse is often cited in discussions about faith, priorities, and trust in divine providence, emphasizing that spiritual pursuits should take precedence over materialistic concerns.
