This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

1Co 8:3. Τὸν Θεὸν, God) The love of our neighbour follows the love of God.-οὗτος, this same) who loves.-ἔγνωσται) is known. Active follows passive knowledge, 1Co 13:12. In this expression we have an admirable metalepsis[64]-he was known, and therefore he hath known, Gal 4:9, note. The knowledge is mutual.-ὑπʼ αὐτοῦ) by Him.

[64] See Append. A twofold trope, or figurative use of the same word or phrase.
