5. not . . . unseemly — is not uncourteous, or inattentive to civility and propriety. thinketh no evil — imputeth not evil [ALFORD]; literally, " the evil" which actually is there ( Proverbs 10:12 ; 1 Peter 4:8 ). Love makes allowances for the falls of others, and is ready to put on them a charitable construction. Love, so far from devising evil against another, excuses " the evil" which another inflicts on her [ESTIUS]; doth not meditate upon evil inflicted by another [BENGEL]; and in doubtful cases, takes the more charitable view [GROTIUS]. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-6" class="com-number"
