Matthew 7:6
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg discusses the biblical verse Matthew 7:6 and suggests that Jesus is using metaphorical language rather than intending for it to be taken literally. The verse urges people not to give holy dogs or cast pearls before swine, implying that those with no interest in spiritual truth should not be given valuable things. Gregg suggests that this could refer to the gospel itself and encourages those who value truth to sacrifice anything for it.
