Ephesians 4:32
_ _ (Luke 7:42; Colossians 3:12).
_ _ even as — God hath shown Himself “kind, tender-hearted, and forgiving to you”; it is but just that you in turn shall be so to your fellow men, who have not erred against you in the degree that you have erred against God (Matthew 18:33).
_ _ God for Christ’s sake — rather as Greek, “God in Christ” (2 Corinthians 5:19). It is in Christ that God vouchsafes forgiveness to us. It cost God the death of His Son, as man, to forgive us. It costs us nothing to forgive our fellow man.
_ _ hath forgiven — rather as Greek, “forgave you.” God has, once for all, forgiven sin in Christ, as a past historical fact. |
Ephesians 4:32
As God, showing himself kind and tenderhearted in the highest degree, hath forgiven you. |
Ephesians 4:32
And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, (19) even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
(19) An argument taken from the example of Christ, most grave and strong, both for the pardoning of those injuries which have been done to us by our greatest enemies, and much more for having consideration of the miserable, and using moderation and gentle behaviour towards all men. |
