- Matthew_3:8 abstract "Matthew 3:8 is the eighth verse of the third chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament. The verse occurs in where John the Baptist is berating the Pharisees and Sadducees. He has previously called them a brood of vipers and warned them of the wrath to come in this verse he urges them to repent.In the King James Version of the Bible the text reads:Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance:The World English Bible translates the passage as:Therefore bring forth fruit worthy of repentance!For a collection of other versions see here: Matthew 3:8Like the rest of this section this verse is mirrored in the Gospel of Luke, with this passage appearing in Luke 3:8. Since it is not found in Mark most scholars feel it is most likely taken from Q. The lone difference from Luke is that the word fruit is pluralized in Matthew.This is the first appearance of a fruit metaphor that will recur in Matthew 7:16 and appears in other parts of the New Testament. As the growing of fruit is the clear and outward manifestation of a healthy tree the term is seen as a metaphor for the good works of a true Christian. The call for repentance echoes Matthew 3:2 and links into the eschatological tone of this chapter.How these good works link to repentance is a source of much dispute. There are two different interpretations of this passage. The phrase could be read as saying that the Pharisees and Sadducees should do good works in order to be repentant. The other view is that good works are only an outgrowth of internal repentance as a fruit is the product of a healthy tree. The first interpretation is that held by Catholics and the second by Protestants. According to Clarke the modern scholarly consensus is that the wording of this verse is ambiguous and both interpretations are plausible.This verse thus became a part of the larger debate over the Protestant doctrine of the justification of faith. Protestants adopted the fruit metaphor in a number of important works. The Augsburg Confession, for instance, states that \"it is taught among us that such faith should produce good fruits and good works and that we must do all such good works as God has commanded, but we should do them for God’s sake and not place our trust in them as if thereby to merit favor before God.\"".
