This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
9 And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;
Ver. 9. And in all judgment] Or, sense. The soul also hath her senses as well as the body. And these must be exercised to discern good and evil, Heb_5:14, those two learned senses especially (as Aristotle calleth them), the eye and the ear, Job_34:3; Jer_2:31. Further, observe here, that knowledge and sense, or judgment, are two things. Young trees are more sappy, but old trees are more solid.
