Matthew 7:12 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

This golden rule needs no comment. Oh! that all the followers of the Lord JESUS made it their rule with all men. It is said of one of the heathen emperors, Alexander Severus, that he was so great an admirer of this maxim, that he caused it to be written for public use, and often mentioned it in honor of Christ and the Christian religion. What a reproach to Christians who act not up to it!

Matthew 7:12

12 Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets.
