In Matthew 6:2, the hypocrites gave alms (charitable donations) for the glory of themselves. The verse states: "So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full." The hypocrites were motivated by the desire for recognition and praise from others rather than genuine compassion or selflessness.
