Matthew 10:9

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.

12 And when you go into a household, greet it.

Matthew 10:9

Provide not - The stress seems to lie on this word: they might use what they had ready; but they might not stay a moment to provide any thing more, neither take any thought about it. Nor indeed were they to take any thing with them, more than was strictly necessary. Lest it should retard them. Because they were to learn hereby to trust to God in all future exigencies.
