This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
For His Name's sake (Ï…Ì”Ï€ÎµÌ€Ï Ï„Î¿Ï…Í‚ ὀνοÌματος)
His is supplied by the A.V. It is not in the text. Rev., correctly, for the sake of the Name. The Name (Jesus Christ) is used thus absolutely in Act 5:41; compare Jam 2:7. For a similar absolute use of the way, see on Act 4:2. See on 1Jo 1:7.
Taking nothing of (μηδὲν λαμβαÌνοντες ἀπὸ)
For the phrase taking of, or from, see on 1Jo 1:5.
The Gentiles (ἐθνικῶν)
This word occurs elsewhere only in the Gospel of Matthew. The more common word is ἐÌθνη, which is the reading of the Tex. Rec. here: ἐθνῶν. See on Luk 2:32.
