Efesios 6:7

7 Servid de buena voluntad, como al Señor y no a los hombres,

Efesios 6:7 Meaning and Commentary

Ephesians 6:7

With good will doing service
To their masters; not grudgingly, with an ill will; no otherwise, nor longer than when they are forced to it; but of a ready mind, and with a cheerful spirit, taking delight in their work, and reckoning it a pleasure to serve their masters; as an Israelite that is not sold, who does his work (wnwurb) , "with his good will", and according to his own mind {b}; doing what they do

as to the Lord, and not to men;
not merely because it is the will of men, and they are commanded by them, and in order to please them, but because it is the will of the Lord, and is wellpleasing in his sight.

Efesios 6:7 In-Context

5 Siervos, obedeced a vuestros amos en la tierra, con temor y temblor, con la sinceridad de vuestro corazón, como a Cristo;

6 no para ser vistos, como los que quieren agradar a los hombres, sino como siervos de Cristo, haciendo de corazón la voluntad de Dios.

7 Servid de buena voluntad, como al Señor y no a los hombres,

8 sabiendo que cualquier cosa buena que cada uno haga, esto recibirá del Señor, sea siervo o sea libre.

9 Y vosotros, amos, haced lo mismo con ellos, y dejad las amenazas, sabiendo que el Señor de ellos y de vosotros está en los cielos, y que para El no hay acepción de personas.
