On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Forbearing one another in love. This agrees with what is elsewhere taught, that "love suffereth long and is kind." (1 Corinthians 13:4.) Where love is strong and prevalent, we shall perform many acts of mutual forbearance.

John Calvin· Commentaries, 1554reformed

Forbearing one another in love signifies bearing their infirmities out of a principle of love, and so as not to cease to love them on the account of these. The best Christians have need to bear one with another, and to make the best one of another, to provoke one another's graces and not their passions.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan
