Barnes' Notes
But let us, who are of the day, be sober - Temperate, as people usually are in the daytime.
Putting on the breast-plate of faith and love - This is a favorite comparison of the apostle Paul; see it explained at length in the notes on Ephesians 6:14.
And for an helmet, the hope of salvation - See the notes at Ephesians 6:17.
