Study Note

The command to 'seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well' stands as the climactic application of Jesus's teaching against anxiety about material provision (6:25-34). The antidote to anxiety is not positive thinking but reoriented priority: making God's reign the organizing concern from which all else follows. 'His righteousness' ('dikaiosyne autou') suggests both God's righteous character and the right ordering of human life in alignment with God's purposes. The promise that 'all these things' (food, clothing, daily needs) will be added locates the verse squarely in Jesus's distinctive teaching that proper orientation toward God reorders one's entire relationship to the material world.
