This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
Ver. 2. Hath loved us, and hath given] When Christ wept for Lazarus, "Lo, how he loved him," said the Jews, Joh_11:35-36. When he poured forth his soul for a drink offering for us, was not this a surer seal of his endeared love?
An offering and a sacrifice] By this to expiate our sins, by that to mediate and make request for us; and so to show himself a perfect High Priest.
