This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Whilst ye were made a gazing-stock (θεατριζόμενοι)
N.T.o. olxx, oClass. Lit. exhibited in the theater. Comp. 1Co 4:9.
Whilst ye became companions (κοινωνοὶ γενηθέντες)
Rend. by becoming partakers. More than companionship is implied. For κοινωνοὶ see on Luk 5:10. The noun and its kindred verb in N.T. almost exclusively of ethical and spiritual relations, as 1Ti 5:22; 1Pe 4:13; 2Jo 1:11; 1Co 10:18; 2Co 1:7; Phm 1:17. Even when applied to pecuniary contributions they imply Christian fellowship as the basis of the liberality. See on Rom 12:13; see on Rom 15:27; see on Phi 4:15.
Of them that were so used (τῶν οὕτως ἀναστρφομένων)
Rend. “of them that fared thus.” Others render “who conducted themselves thus”; endured their persecutions, so bravely. But the οὕτως can refer only to made a gazing-stock.
