约翰一书 4:21 Meaning and Commentary

1 John 4:21

And this commandment have we from him
Either "from God", as the Alexandrian copy and the Vulgate Latin version read; and that to love the brethren is a commandment of God, is clear from ( 1 John 3:23 ) ; or from Christ, for it is also a command of his, even his new commandment, which he has given, and his people have received from him:

that he who loveth God, love his brother also;
see ( John 13:34 ) ( John 15:12 John 15:17 ) ; which is an argument persuading to attend to the one as well as to the other; for the same command that requires the one, requires the other: and he that transgresses it in one case, is a transgressor of it, as well as in the other.

约翰一书 4:21 In-Context

19 我 们 爱 , 因 为 神 先 爱 我 们 。
20 人 若 说 我 爱 神 , 却 恨 他 的 弟 兄 , 就 是 说 谎 话 的 ; 不 爱 他 所 看 见 的 弟 兄 , 就 不 能 爱 没 有 看 见 的 神 ( 有 古 卷 作 : 怎 能 爱 没 有 看 见 的 神 呢 ) 。
21 爱 神 的 , 也 当 爱 弟 兄 , 这 是 我 们 从 神 所 受 的 命 令 。
