22. A solemn closing warning added in his own hand as in Ephesians 6:24 ; Colossians 4:18 . the Lord —who ought to be "loved" above Paul, Apollos, and all other teachers. Love to one another is to be in connection with love to Him above all. IGNATIUS [ Epistle to the Romans, 7] writes of Christ, "My love, has been crucified" (compare Song of Solomon 2:7 ). Jesus Christ —omitted in the oldest manuscripts. let him be Anathema — accursed with that curse which the Jews who call Jesus "accursed" ( 1 Corinthians 12:3 ) are bringing righteously on their own heads [BENGEL]. So far from "saluting" him, I bid him be accursed. Maranatha — Syriac for, "the Lord cometh." A motto or watchword to urge them to preparedness for the Lord's coming; as in 1 Corinthians 12:3- : , "The Lord is at hand." return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-23" class="com-number"
