Gill's Notes on the Bible

And seek not what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink,.... That is, in an anxious and distressing manner, with a tormenting and vexatious care; otherwise food is to be both asked of God every day, and to be sought for and after in the use of proper means:

neither be ye of doubtful minds; questioning and distrusting that ye shall have any thing to eat or drink: be not fickle, unstable, and inconstant, and wandering in your thoughts about these things, like the meteors in the air, which are carried about here and there; let not your minds be disturbed and distracted about them; or be anxiously solicitous for them; :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

See this passage explained in the notes at Matthew 6:25-33.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 29. Neither be ye of doubtful mind. — Or, in anxious suspense, Όη ΌΔτΔωρÎčζΔσΞΔ. Raphelius gives several examples to prove that the meaning of the word is, to have the mind agitated with useless thoughts, and vain imaginations concerning food, raiment, and riches, accompanied with perpetual uncertainty.
