This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Sanctify them, not initially, for so they were sanctified already, but progressively: let them increase more and more in grace and holiness.
Learn hence, 1. That such as are already sanctified, must labour and ought to endeavour after further measures and higher degrees of santification: that the most holy may yet be more holy.
2. The word of God is the great instrument in God's hand for his people's santification.
3. That the word of God is the truth of God; Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. The word of God is a divine truth, an eternal truth, an infallible truth, an holy truth.
