But if you forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
All Commentaries on Matthew 6:15 Go To Matthew 6
John Chrysostom
AD 407
He mentions heaven and the Father to claim our attention, for nothing so likens you to God, as to forgive him who has injured you. And it were indeed unmeet should the son of such a Father become a slave, and should one who has aheavenly vocation live as of this earth, and of this life only.
