This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

8. ἀλλὰ ὑμεῖς ἀδικεῖτε. Not only are you not willing to suffer injury, but you inflict it, and you inflict it upon those with whom you are conjoined in relations as affectionate as the ties of blood. ‘One is your Master upon earth and all ye are brethren.’ And this was not to be a convention or a sentiment, but a fact; witnessed to by the affectionate name ‘the brethren’ by which everywhere Christians were known. ὑμεῖς gives emphasis to ‘you’—‘you members of the Christian brotherhood.’
