  2. Explication du texte

What is the reward that kingdom citizens would expect from their Father?

Matthieu 6:1 (NEG79)

1 Gardez-vous de pratiquer votre justice devant les hommes, pour en être vus; autrement, vous n'aurez point de récompense auprès de votre Père qui est dans les cieux.

The reward is not specified. It could be related to something eschatological (see Matthew 25:34–36) 1 or the blessing of a good conscience/knowledge that your actions have pleased your Father. 2 In either case, the motive for action is not selfish (a heavenly reward) but simply a desire to please the Father because you love the Father. 3
