(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

I rejoiced

Expressions of thankful joy are common in the Pauline salutations. See Romans, 1 Corinthians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1 Thessalonians, 2 Thessalonians, Philemon.

Greatly (λίαν)

The word is found in John's writings only here and 3Jo 1:3.

I found (εὕρηκα)

See on Joh 1:41. Rev., I have found.

Of thy children (ἐκ τῶν τέκνων)

The rendering is obscure. Rev., rightly, supplies certain. Compare Joh 16:17.

In truth (ἐν ἀληθείᾳ)

Compare 3Jo 1:3. See on 1Jo 1:8.
