General summary of relative duty, after having detailed particular duties from I Peter 2:18.
of one mind—as to the faith.
having compassion one of another—Greek, "sympathizing" in the joy and sorrow of others.
love as brethren—Greek, "loving the brethren."
pitiful—towards the afflicted.
courteous—genuine Christian politeness; not the tinsel of the world's politeness; stamped with unfeigned love on one side, and humility on the other. But the oldest manuscripts read, "humble-minded." It is slightly different from "humble," in that it marks a conscious effort to be truly humble.
