Matthew Poole and continuators on Ephesians 4:2

2 With all lowliness and meekness , with long-suffering , forbearing one another in love .

Or Humility; submisness of mind, whereby we esteem others better than our selves, Phil. 2.3. A vertue peculiar to Christians, unknown to Philosophers, see Act. 20.19. Col. 3.12, 13.

Whereby we are not easily provoked; or offended with the infirmities of others: this is opposed to peevishness as the former to pride.

Whereby we bear with greater or repeated injuries, 2 Cor. 6.6.

Or supporting, i. e. bearing with the infirmities, frowardness, or moroseness of others, so as not to cease to love them, and doe them good.

Not out of any carnal affection, or for our own advantage, but out of Love, which is wont to make men patient and long-suffering, 1 Cor. 13.4.
