<p>6:25 <i>Woe to you, you that are full now For you shall hunger. Woe to you that laugh now For you shall mourn and weep</i>- The wealth, laughter and fullness refers to spiritual confidence of the type seen in the Jewish religious leadership. The gospel is good news for those who mourn for their sins, and hunger to be righteous. Those who considered themselves spiritually rich would experience the mourning and weeping associated with condemnation at the last day. Either we will mourn now in repentance, or we will mourn at the judgment (Mt. 8:12 etc.). Having foretold the inevitable coming of judgment day, Yahweh Himself pleads with Israel: &quot;Therefore also <i>now</i>... turn ye even to me... with weeping, and with mourning&quot; (Joel 2:12). See on Mt. 3:11.</p>
