Ephesians 5 - Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible

Exhortation to brotherly love.

Because God, for Christ's sake, has forgiven you, therefore be ye followers of God, imitators of God. Resemble him especially in his love and pardoning goodness, as becomes those beloved by their heavenly Father. In Christ's sacrifice his love triumphs, and we are to consider it fully. (Eph 5:3-14)
