Matthew Poole and continuators on Romans 12:16

16. Be of the same mind one towards another . Mind not high things , but condescend to men of low estate . Be not wise in your own conceits .

This Exhortation respects not so much Unity in Judgment, as in Affection. q. d. Bear the same good respect to others, as others bear to thee; let there be a mutual Agreement in your Desires, and good wishes one for another. vid. Chap. 15.5. Phil. 2.2. 1 Pet. 3.8.

i. e. Things Above your Capacities and Callings. Take heed of ambitious Aspirings: Remember what David said (one every way above you) in Psal. 131.1.

The word (Low) only is in the Greek; The other Words are put in by our Translators; and it may be referred, Either to Things, and so it Answers to high things, in the foregoing Clause: Or it may be referred to Persons, according to our Translation; and then the sence is, That we, should not despise our poor brethren, but stoop to the lowest offices, of Christian kindness

This seems to be taken from Prov. 3.7. vid. v. 3.

Marginal references: Or, not mindi[illegible: 1 letter]g.; Jer. 45.5.; Or, be conted with mean things.; Isa. 5.21.
