*. Gill's Exposition
————————
Let your light so shine before men,....
Here Christ applies the foregoing simile to his disciples, and more
fully opens the meaning and design of it. His sense is this; that the
light of the Gospel, which he had communicated to them, the spiritual
knowledge of the mysteries of grace, which he had favoured them with,
were to be openly declared, and made manifest before men. Light was
not given merely for their own private use, but for the public good of
mankind; and therefore, as they were placed as lights in the world,
they were to hold forth, in the most open and conspicuous manner, the
word of light and life:
that they may see your good works: meaning their zeal and fervency;
their plainness and openness; their sincerity, faithfulness, and
integrity; their courage and intrepidity; their diligence, industry,
and indefatigableness in preaching the Gospel; their strict regard to
truth, the honour of Christ, and the good of souls; as also their very
great care and concern to recommend the doctrines of grace, by their
example in their lives and conversations:
and glorify your Father which is in heaven; that is, that when the
ministration of the Gospel has been blessed, for the illumination of
the minds of men, to a thorough conviction of their state; and for
their regeneration, conversion, sanctification, and comfort; they may
give praise to God, and bless his name for qualifying and sending such
Gospel ministers to show unto them the way of salvation; and that the
word has been made useful to them for communicating spiritual light,
life, joy, and comfort, אבינו שבשמים, "Our and your Father which is in
heaven", is a name, appellation, or periphrasis of God, frequently
used by Jewish writersF19; and is often expressed by Christ in these
his sermons on the mount.
*. Whedon's Commentary
———————————
Let your light shine —
While you indulge no ostentation to win applause for yourself, it is
your duty so to manifest the clearness of yourgood worksas thatmenmay
honour the Gospel.
And glorify your Father —
Do nothing to glorify yourself, but everything to get glory to God by
honouring the Gospel. The illumination of the candle is not for
itself, but for the master whose house it illumines.
Men should not wish their donations to a Church or to a charity to be
published, for the reputation of it, but in order that the Gospel
should have the credit of it, and that others may be influenced to
like liberality by the example.
