It's about investing in relationships, demonstrating compassion, and living out the greatest commandments (love God, love your neighbor) as the true path to heavenly treasure, contrasting with material riches. 


Key interpretations:


Spiritual Investment: Just as money is used for earthly transactions, love (faith, hope, compassion) is the currency for spiritual gain, building eternal treasures through acts of kindness, forgiveness, and service.
