This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Knowing, being fully persuaded of this undoubted truth,



that of the Lord, who superintends all your services, (not for any merit of yours), Eph_6:8, the recompence which your Master in heaven hath purchased, Eph_1:14,18, shall be freely settled upon you whom he hath adopted into his family, Rom_8:17 Gal_4:7 Eph_1:5; for in those duties you Christianly perform to masters of the same mould with yourselves, he really looks upon you as his own servants, {see Eph_6:6} yea, and free-men, 1Co_7:22; so that, as Onesimus, Phm_1:10, ye may more cheerfully submit to your masters’ yoke, according to the command and for the sake of Christ, who reckons what you do upon that account as done to himself, Mat_25:40, and will instate you in that eternal inheritance, to which neither you nor any mortal man had naturally any right at all.
