Robertson Word Pictures - Colossians 4:1 - 4:1


(Show All Books | Show All Chapters)

This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

That which is just and equal (to dikaion kai tēn isotēta). Paul changes from to ison (like to dikaion, neuter singular adjective with article for abstract idea) to the abstract substantive isotēs, old word, in N.T. only here and 2Co 8:13. If employers always did this, there would be no labour problem.

A Master in heaven (Kurion en ouranōi). A wholesome reminder to the effect that he keeps his eye on the conduct of masters of men here towards their employees.
