People's Commentary (NT)
I Corinthians 13:4 The action of love is now described. Charity suffereth long. Love endures slights and wrongs patiently and long, and returns a kindly spirit. It is "slow to anger" (Psalms 103:8). Christ, "when he was reviled, reviled not again" (I Peter 2:23). "The fruit of the Spirit is long-suffering" (Galatians 5:22). See also Romans 2:4 2Co 6:6. Charity envieth not. How miserable is that envy which is made unhappy by the good fortune of another. Cain is an example. Love excludes it. A mother does not envy her child. Vaunteth not itself. Does not ostentatiously boast of superiority, not is it inflated.
