NETBible

The good person brings good things out of his good treasury, and the evil person brings evil things out of his evil treasury.

NET Notes

tn The Greek text reads here ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpos). The term is generic referring to any person.

tn Grk “the”; the Greek article has been translated here and in the following clause (“his evil treasury”) as a possessive pronoun (ExSyn 215).

sn The treasury here is a metaphorical reference to a person’s heart (cf. BDAG 456 s.v. θησαυρός 1.b and the parallel passage in Luke 6:45).
