Matthew 6:29 Context
27Which of you by taking thought, can adde one cubite vnto his stature? 28And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lillies of the field, how they grow: they toile not, neither doe they spinne. 29And yet I say vnto you, that euen Solomon in all his glory, was not arayed like one of these. 30Wherefore, if God so clothe the grasse of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the ouen: shall he not much more clothe you, O yee of little faith? 31Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eate? or, what shall we drinke? or wherewithall shall wee be clothed?

People's Bible Notes for Matthew 6:29
Mt 6:29 Even Solomon in all his glory. To the Jew the court of Solomon was the highest representation of human glory. The magnificence of the court is not only celebrated in Jewish writings, but in all Oriental literature, and it is still proverbial throughout the East. Yet he was never arrayed with the taste and beauty of "one of these". It is probable that both birds and lilies were in sight from where the Lord was sitting.
