On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

The import then of what he addresses to the more intelligent and the already confirmed, is this, -- that the ampler the grace which they had received from the Lord, the more bound they were to help their neighbors. Not for the debatings of questions. This is a defective sentence, as the word which is necessary to complete the sense is wanting.

John Calvin· Commentaries, 1554reformed

Let not your Christian friendship and fellowship be disturbed with such vain janglings and strifes of words.-- Not to judge his doubtful thoughts (so the margin), "not to pump out his weak sentiments concerning those things which he is in doubt about, that you may censure and condemn him." Receive him, not to expose him, but to instruct and strengthen him.
