Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 16:24

• Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 24My love be with you all in Christ Jesus - It appears exceedingly strange that the apostle should say, My love be with you; as he said, The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. We can easily conceive what the latter means: the grace of Christ is an active, powerful, saving principle; it is essential to the existence of the Christian Church that this grace should be ever with it: and without this grace no individual can be saved.

• Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 24In Christ Jesus - Through Christ Jesus; or in connection with your love to him; that is, as Christians. This is an expression of tender regard to them as Christian brethren; of his love for the church; and his earnest desire for their welfare. It is in accordance with the usual manner in which he closes his epistles; and it is especially tender, affectionate, and beautiful here, when we consider the manner in which he had been treated by many of the…Read the comment
• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 19-24Verses 19-24 Christianity by no means destroys civility. Religion should promote a courteous and obliging temper towards all.

Every Christian family should be as a Christian church…Read the comment

• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 2424. My love, &c.--After having administered some severe rebukes, he closes with expressions of "love": his very rebukes were prompted by love, and therefore are altogether in harmony with the profession of love here made: it was love in Christ Jesus, and therefore embraced "all" who loved Him. The subscription represents the Epistle as written from Philippi. 1Co 16:8 shows it was written at Ephesus. Bengel conjectures that perhaps, however, it was sent…Read the comment
