Matthew 5:45

5:45 so that you may be like 1  your Father in heaven, since he causes the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

Matthew 18:9

18:9 And if your eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye than to have 2  two eyes and be thrown into fiery hell. 3 

1 tn Grk “be sons of your Father in heaven.” Here, however, the focus is not on attaining a relationship (becoming a child of God) but rather on being the kind of person who shares the characteristics of God himself (a frequent meaning of the Semitic idiom “son of”). See L&N 58.26.

2 tn Grk “than having.”

3 tn Grk “the Gehenna of fire.”

sn See the note on the word hell in 5:22.
