1 Peter3:8
8 Finally be ye all of one mind , having compassion one of another, love as brethren , be pitiful , be courteous .
Either be of one mind in the things of Faith; and then this implies the consent of the Understanding; and the next, that of the affections; or, be united both in Faith and Affection, see Rom. 12.16. and 2 Cor. 13.11. and Phil. 4.2.
Mutually affected with each others good or evil, Rom. 12.15. Heb. 10.34. and 13.3. This he joins with the other as the consequent of it; they that are united in Faith and Love are of the same Body; and where one Member suffers, the rest suffer, 1 Cor. 12.26.
Viz. in Christ; see chap. 2.17.
Ready to shew Mercy, of a merciful disposition, Eph. 4.32. Col. 3.12.
Kind, affable, human, of a sweet Conversation, in opposition to sowrness and moroseness. Act. 23.7. the same word is used.
Marginal references: Rom. 15.5. Phil. 3.16.; Or, loving to the Brethren.
