A lot of meaning can be packed into a sentence. Proverbs are usually well

known sentences that contain a lot of wisdom. Every proverb contains the

packed wisdom of many generations. We can explain the meaning of such a

sentence by expanding the sentence into a paragraph.

You cannot serve God and Mammon

The word Mammon signifies greed or love of wealth. The greedy man is found of money. His heart is filled with love of money. There is no place in his heart for God. If he loved God, his heart would be filled with God, and he would not be able to love money. Thus the man who loves God cannot love Mammon, and the man who loves Mammon cannot love God.
