Luke 6:31 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 6:31

And as ye would that men should do to you
In matters of justice and beneficence were they in your case, and you in theirs;

do ye also to them likewise:
a golden rule this, agreeably to the light of nature, and divine revelation, and is the sum and substance of the law and prophets; (See Gill on Matthew 7:12).

Luke 6:31 In-Context

29 ei qui te percutit in maxillam praebe et alteram et ab eo qui aufert tibi vestimentum etiam tunicam noli prohibere
30 omni autem petenti te tribue et qui aufert quae tua sunt ne repetas
31 et prout vultis ut faciant vobis homines et vos facite illis similiter
32 et si diligitis eos qui vos diligunt quae vobis est gratia nam et peccatores diligentes se diligunt
33 et si benefeceritis his qui vobis benefaciunt quae vobis est gratia siquidem et peccatores hoc faciunt
