Secondly, the similar command of not letting our left hand know what our right hand doeth, has not been thought to preclude all lists of Societies and commemorations of charitable donations. Thirdly, that the Apostles, as we have seen, regarded this commandment, as the Church lias ever done, in a more general light, as directed against love of ostentation, ...parti- cularly against that of the Pharisees, who loved to pray standing in the synagogues, and in the corners of the streets, 1 Acts Yii. 4S. "' S. Matthew vi. 6 14 PRIVATE DEVOTION to be seen of men. It will be remembered that the PubK- can, the true penitent, who would not so much as lift up his ej^es unto Heaven, and who went down to his house justified rather than the other, had, nevertheless, gone up to the Temple* to pray. Indeed, this seems to have been our Saviour's method of teaching, to state a fact strongly, that the impression might be strong ; and thus it is that we are commanded to hate our father and mother, to turn the left cheek to him that smites us on the right, to allow him that has taken our coat to have om- cloak also.
