11: αποκριθεις δε λεγει αυτοις ο εχων δυο χιτωνας μεταδοτω τω μη εχοντι και ο εχων βρωματα ομοιως ποιειτω— edit Textus Receptus
11: He answereth and saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.— edit KJV text
11: And he answering, said to them: He that hath two coats, let him give to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do in like manner.— edit Douay text



He {h} that hath two coats, &c. Or, in other words, aid the poor according to your ability; be benevolent, and you will thus show that your repentance is genuine. It is remarkable that one of the first demands of religion is to do good, and it is in this way that it may be shown that the repentance is not feigned.

Coats See "Mt 5:40".

Meat. Provision of any kind.
