In Matthew 6, against the hypocrisy of the rabbis, Jesus taught to give alms and to pray secretly.
Just as the Jews do today, the Jews were in the habit of standing up in public and humping up and down or rocking back and forth in order to draw attention to themselves as they make a big show of praying.
Just as they do today, the Jews loved to make themselves famous by putting their names on philanthropic foundations.
Jesus taught to avoid lying and being hypocritical like the Jews but rather to pray in private and to give charity in secret.
The Jews gave charity in public as a means of buying fame and prestige for themselves.
So, their “charity” really was not real charity but rather a form of buying and selling – buying prestige with public donations.
Jesus taught true charity by offering help, without trumpeting it about.
He gave us the famous “Lord’s Prayer” and taught the proper way to fast.
And he teaches us not to amass wealth in this world but rather to amass the virtue and good deeds that are the true wealth that carries us not only through this world but also into the next world with joy and safety.
His teaching in Mat 6:22-23 can be easily observed today in the black and beady eyes of the Jews.
Matthew 6 (KJV) - The light of the body
The spiritual life of one’s soul shines forth from the eyes.
Those soulless fiends who inhabit Jewish bodies have only blackness in the lost darkness of their eyes or else a shifty cunning.
No light shines out of the eyes of the rabbis, only death.
Look and you can see it for yourself. (see Figure 128 - Schneerson)
Menachem Mendel Schneerson - Wikipedia
Jesus taught the greedy Jews that being enslaved with money could not free them to a love of God.
Being worried about where the next day’s food and clothing were to come from was useless worry because simply by doing a day’s occupation, all that one needs will be provided by the Providence of God.
It seems incredible but it’s true.
One can certainly sit at home and starve if you wish, but merely by participating even in a minor way in Society, you will find all that you need through your work.
However, this teaching is also misunderstood in that it was made, not to the people in general, but to his disciples who were the first monks, the first society of Christian monks.
They did not need much in the way of food or material goods.
So, this teaching should not be used by the atheists as a way of claiming that Jesus taught people how to be impoverished.
If you work, you will have more than enough.
If you are a monk, you will have enough.
