Compare all

7 ^aAnd as you go, preach, saying, ^b‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’

8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers,² raise the dead, cast out demons. ^aFreely you have received, freely give.

9 ^aProvide neither gold nor silver nor ^bcopper in your money belts,

10 nor bag for your journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor staffs; ^afor a worker is worthy of his food.

11 ^a“Now whatever city or town you enter, inquire who in it is worthy, and stay there till you go out.

Matthew 10:9 Provide neither gold, etc. Because "the workman is worthy of his meat" (Matthew 10:10) and those to whom they preached should supply all their wants. Compare I Timothy 5:18 1Co 9:7-14. This has always been the law of Christ.
