This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Honour widows; give a respect to such as have lost their husbands, with a regard to that honourable estate of marriage in which they have been formerly, and do not only pay them a due respect, but afford them a maintenance, Act_6:1.



That are widows indeed: who are widows indeed he openeth further, 1Ti_5:5; such as are not only pious, but desolate, as the Greek word for a widow implies, according to its derivation.
