This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Liberty (ἄνεσιν)
From ἀνίημι, to send up; thence, to loosen, release. It is almost exactly expressed by our vulgarism, to let up. The noun here is more correctly rendered by Rev., indulgence. In all the other New Testament passages it is rendered rest, ease, or relief. See 2Co 2:13; 2Co 7:5; 2Co 8:13; 2Th 1:7.
To minister (ὑπηρετεῖν)
See on officer, Mat 5:25.
