31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.
31 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
31 And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.
31 "Here is a simple rule of thumb for behavior: Ask yourself what you want people to do for you; then grab the initiative and do it for them!
31 And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.
31 Do to others as you would like them to do to you.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Luke 6:31
Commentary on Luke 6:27-36
(Read Luke 6:27-36)
These are hard lessons to flesh and blood. But if we are thoroughly grounded in the faith of Christ's love, this will make his commands easy to us. Every one that comes to him for washing in his blood, and knows the greatness of the mercy and the love there is in him, can say, in truth and sincerity, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? Let us then aim to be merciful, even according to the mercy of our heavenly Father to us.
