This Chapter Verse Commentaries:





Be kindly affectioned one to another; Christians ought to have such affection one to another, as parents have to their children, and as all creatures have to their young: so much the word here used imports.



In honour preferring one another: this clause is expounded by Phi_2:3. It is exemplified in Abraham, Gen_13:9. Most desire preference and honour before others, which is contrary to the good counsel in this text. Some read it, prevent one another; do not tarry till others honour you, but do you go before them in this expression of brotherly love, and be examples to them.
