Gospel of Matthew Chapter 5 Vs. 26

 Anger

Matthew 5:26 “Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.”

Verily I say... This is in connection with the last lesson, where we need to agree before going to court and being thrown in jail.

by no means... Christians, as I said in an earlier lesson, should not be looking for reasons to sue someone. We need to live peaceably with all men.

the uttermost farthing... In the case of some debt.

Without such reconciliation, gifts presented at the altar mean nothing: Even on the way to a court trial a defendant should seek to clear up any such problem. Otherwise the Sanhedrin, the Jewish court of 70 members, would send him to prison and he would be penniless.
