This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
many walk - in such a manner. Follow not evildoers, because they are “many” (Exo 23:2). Their numbers are rather a presumption against their being Christ’s “little flock” (Luk 12:32).
often - There is need of constant warning.
weeping - (Rom 9:2). A hard tone in speaking of the inconsistencies of professors is the very opposite of Paul’s spirit, and David’s (Psa 119:136), and Jeremiah’s (Jer 13:17). The Lord and His apostles, at the same time, speak more strongly against empty professors (as the Pharisees), than against open scoffers.
enemies of the cross of Christ - in their practice, not in doctrine (Gal 6:14; Heb 6:6; Heb 10:29).
