This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Mat_6:4. βλέπων ἐν τῷ κρυπτῷ ] who sees, i.e. knows what goes on in secret, where He is equally present. Grotius and Kuinoel arbitrarily take the words to be equivalent to τὰ ἐν τῷ κρ .

αὐτὸς ἀποδώσει σοι ] He Himself will reward you, that is, at the Messianic judgment (i.e. ἐν τῷ φανερῷ , 2Co_5:10); αὐτός forms a contrast to the human rewards, which the hypocrites, with their ostentatious ways of acting, managed to secure in the shape of applause from their fellow-men, Mat_6:2.
