Keep your lives free from the love of money
This phrase emphasizes the biblical warning against the dangers of materialism and greed. The love of money is often associated with idolatry, as it can become a substitute for reliance on God. In1 Timothy 6:10, Paul warns that the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, leading some away from the faith. The cultural context of the early church included a society where wealth was often equated with divine favor, yet Jesus taught inMatthew 6:24 that one cannot serve both God and money. This call to avoid the love of money is a reminder to prioritize spiritual wealth over material possessions.

and be content with what you have
Contentment is a recurring theme in Scripture, urging believers to find satisfaction in God's provision rather than in worldly abundance.Philippians 4:11-13 highlights Paul's own contentment in all circumstances, whether in need or in plenty, through the strength of Christ. The historical context of the early Christians often involved persecution and economic hardship, making the call to contentment particularly poignant. This contentment is rooted in trust in God's sovereignty and goodness, as seen inPsalm 23:1, where the Lord as Shepherd ensures that His people lack nothing.

for God has said: “Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you.”
This promise of God's presence and faithfulness is a cornerstone of biblical assurance. It echoesDeuteronomy 31:6, where Moses encourages Israel with God's promise as they prepare to enter the Promised Land.Joshua 1:5 also reiterates this assurance to Joshua as he leads the people. The phrase underscores God's unchanging nature and His commitment to His covenant people. In the New Testament, Jesus reaffirms this promise inMatthew 28:20, assuring His disciples of His presence until the end of the age. This assurance provides the foundation for contentment and freedom from the love of money, as believers trust in God's unfailing presence and provision.

What Does Hebrews 13:5 Mean
Keep your lives free from the love of money

Money itself is neutral, yet Scripture warns that loving it crowds out devotion to God.

• Jesus puts it plainly: “You cannot serve both God and money” (Matthew 6:24).

• Paul agrees: “The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil” (1 Timothy 6:10).

• Greed is sneaky;Luke 12:15 cautions, “Guard yourselves against every form of greed.”

The writer of Hebrews calls believers to examine motives, habits, and ambitions so that finances remain a tool, not a master.

And be content with what you have

Contentment is not passive resignation but active trust in God’s provision.

• Paul learned this secret: “I have learned to be content regardless of my circumstances” (Philippians 4:11-13).

• “Godliness with contentment is great gain” (1 Timothy 6:6-8).

• Even a modest supply, when received from the Father’s hand, is “better… than the abundance of many wicked” (Psalm 37:16).

Contentment frees the heart, allowing gratitude to replace anxiety and comparison.

For God has said: “Never will I leave you”

The command to be content rests on an unshakeable promise.

• First spoken to Israel—“He will never leave you nor forsake you” (Deuteronomy 31:6)—and echoed to Joshua (Joshua 1:5).

• Jesus repeats it to His disciples: “I am with you always” (Matthew 28:20).

Because the living God stays, believers can hold possessions loosely; the greatest treasure is His abiding presence.

Never will I forsake you

Forsake means abandon. God’s word guarantees He will never walk away.

• “Do not fear, for I am with you… I will uphold you” (Isaiah 41:10).

• “The LORD will not forsake His people” (Psalm 94:14).

•Romans 8:38-39 assures nothing in creation “will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

This pledge is permanent, rooted in His character, not our performance.

summary

Hebrews 13:5 ties two commands—avoid the love of money and pursue contentment—to one mighty promise: God’s constant presence. When His nearness is our security, covetousness loses its grip, gratitude flourishes, and we walk in freedom, trusting the One who will never leave or forsake us.

(5) In these two verses (Hebrews 13:4-5) we have the same connection of thought as inHebrews 12:16;Colossians 3:5;Ephesians 5:3. "Impurity and covetousness may be said to divide between them nearly the whole domain of human selfishness and vice" (Lightfoot onColossians 3:5).

Conversation.--Literally,way of thought and life, character, disposition. . . .

Verse 5. -Let your conversation (i.e. manner of life, ordisposition)be without covetousness; be content with such things as ye have: for he (αὔτος, emphatic)hath said, I will never (i.e. in no wise)leave thee, neither will I ever forsake thee. The reference seems to be toDeuteronomy 31:6,Κύριος ὁ Θεός σου...οὔτε μή σε ἀνῇ οὔτε μή σε ἐγκαταλίπῃ, the same assurance being repeated in ver. 8. But similar promises occur elsewhere in the Old Testament (seeGenesis 28:15;Joshua 1:5;1 Chronicles 28:20;Isaiah 41:17; "Est igitur instar adagiidivini," Bengel).
