6:45The good person out of the good treasury of his140 heart141 produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasury142 produces evil, for his mouth speaks143 from what fills144 his heart.
Footnotes
- 140 Grk “the”; the Greek article has been translated here and in the following clause (“out of the evil”) as a possessive pronoun ( ).
- 141 Mention of the heart shows that Jesus is not interested in what is done, but why. Motives are more important than actions for him.
- 142 The word “treasury” is not repeated in the Greek text at this point, but is implied.
- 143 What one utters from one’s mouth is especially singled out as the example of this principle. James seems to have known this teaching (Jas 1:26; 3:1–12).
- 144 Grk “for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.”
