The New Gospel According to Saint Matthew: Matthew 6
6:1 Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them:
otherwise ye have no reward of your God which is in heaven.
6:2 Therefore when thou doest thine alms, do not sound a trumpet
before thee, as the hypocrites do in the churches and in the
streets, that they may have glory of men. Verily I say unto you, They
have their reward.
6:3 But when thou doest alms, let not thy left hand know what thy
right hand doeth: 6:4 That thine alms may be in secret: and thy God
which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly.
6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are:
for they love to pray standing in the churches and in the corners of
the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They
have their reward.
6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou
hast shut thy door, pray to thy God which is in secret; and thy
God which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for
they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
6:8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your God knoweth what
things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
6:9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our God which art in
heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
6:10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
6:11 Give us this day our daily bread.
6:12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
6:13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For
thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
6:14 For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly God will
also forgive you: 6:15 But if ye forgive not men their trespasses,
neither will your God forgive your trespasses.
6:16 Moreover when ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad
countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto
men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6:17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy
face; 6:18 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy God
which is in secret: and thy God, which seeth in secret, shall
reward thee openly.
6:19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and
rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: 6:20 But
lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust
doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: 6:21
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
6:22 The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be
single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
6:23 But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of
darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that
darkness! 6:24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate
the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and
despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
6:25 Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye
shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye
shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than
raiment? 6:26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither
do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly God feedeth
them. Are ye not much better than they? 6:27 Which of you by taking
thought can add one cubit unto his stature? 6:28 And why take ye
thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow;
they toil not, neither do they spin: 6:29 And yet I say unto you, That
even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.
6:30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day
is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe
you, O ye of little faith? 6:31 Therefore take no thought, saying,
What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we
be clothed? 6:32 For after all these things do the ungodly seek:
for your heavenly God knoweth that ye have need of all these
things.
6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and
all these things shall be added unto you.
6:34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall
take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the
evil thereof.
6:35 Doth not bethink of this life, thy current, as thy first and only life. Thee has't did exist bef're and thee shalt existeth again. T is writ, "nak'd i hath left mine own moth'r's womb and nak'd i shalt returneth th're. "
6:36 "A gen'ration departs and a gen'ration cometh. " If 't be true this wouldst ref'r to the n'rmal floweth of gen'rations, a gen'ration cannot cometh aft'r the previous gen'ration hast gone. Rath'r this ref'rs to the same souls returning in consecutive lives.
6:37 Knoweth yond the p'rson himself is the spiritual element within the corse, while the corse is only a garment f'r the p'rson - not the p'rson himself. This is what is writ, "it shalt not beest smear'd on human flesh. "
6:38 Coequal though a p'rson’s physical corse is miniscule did compare to the physical w'rld, his spiritual soul spans all five spiritual w'rlds yond emanate from ein sof. Since th're is a directeth and automatic c'rrelation between the levels of soul and the levels of w'rlds, man’s actions, besides having a directeth impact on his soul, has't a directeth impact on the c'rresponding spiritual w'rlds. At which hour a p'rson p'rf'rms righteous deeds, t unifies the levels of his soul, and hence, the four w'rlds as well; the opposite is true if 't be true a p'rson sins.
6:39 Since man connects all four w'rlds of aby"a, by necessity, th're hast to existeth within that gent sections from all four w'rlds, hath called by one of the five names: nrnch"y (nefesh, ruach, neshama, chaya, and yechida)
