John Chrysostom, on Matt 6:5

“And when ye pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites, that love to stand and pray in the synagogues and corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men: Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.”

“He said not ‘shall freely give thee,’ but, shall reward thee; thus He constitutes Himself your debtor.”
